art.description.projectArktis Station is a duo performance and montage that draws attention to the role of science in a neo-colonial Arctic. It addresses the historical separation between science and politics that condition current climate research in Greenland, by montaging excerpts of 16mm film shot during a joint fieldwork at Copenhagen University’s Arktisk Station in Qeqertarsuaq, Greenland, October 2017. At Engelsholm Slot we juxtaposed and choreographed two parallel tracks of film-excerpts with text excerpts from different sources and a structuring sound recording of a guided tour at the research station. The soundrecording was live-mediated, using the strategy of simultaneous talk. Through the visually dialogical format our intention was to map out a political economy across theoretical, aesthetic and and geographic topographies, by connecting a kinship of plants with a kinship of scientific practices, throughout Arctic Station’s 100 years of presence in Qeqertarsuaq. Forming part of the gathering and artistic presentation program at Engelsholm Slot, curated by FOE, the intention was to present a performative format that reflected a sense of conversation between us and our fieldwork material, our surroundings and audience.sv
