Peter Norrman • Christina Campanella
PARTS ARE EXTRA
a sound and cinema project
February 2nd & 3rd, 2012, HERE Arts Center (NYC): Christina Campanella & Peter Norrman perform live music in concert with a selection of short, experimental films taken from their 12-part series Parts Are Extra, an art platform with which to investigate the elusive language of cinema. Blending sonic collage with documentary-style footage and re-purposed archival recordings in both media, the duo creates a starkly fantastical universe of dystopian landscapes and eerie, dreamlike worlds. Driven by a live score of deconstructed electronic art songs, fractured narratives of uncharted journeys, spaces of transition, modern decay and the fragility of the natural world are subtly revealed.
