Kathy Hinde – Chirp & Drift:
A sound and light sculpture consisting of a flock of glowing, handmade bird-like kinetic sculptures, assembled from parts of broken accordions, chirping in Morse code.
This is the first time Stavanger’s two professional free contemporary ensembles are collaborating to curate a festival. Two full days of music, art, and cultural experiences inspired by bird life!
