The Vikings
Digital video with sound 2009
Documents a meeting of an Icelandic historical battle reenactment group who meet weekly to practice battle sequences in an underground car park in Reykjavik. The artist was interested in the culture of battle reenactments in Iceland, and what this experience is like for an outsider to encounter a battle performance when it is still a dress rehearsal stage
As the battle commences without the visual material that connects to any point of history, what kind of narrative become visible when a historical tryst is rehearsed within contemporary urban banality.
