broken (iteration III – for Helsinki) is a swan song, a funeral song, a last song, a goodbye song. The creation of the work coincided with Findlay//Sandsmark losing their venue RIMI/IMIR SceneKunst in Stavanger, Norway, in 2024. As an artwork, it turned out to serve as a delicate “farewell” piece for stages in general, and the ways in which they can disappear into the ether. In the frame of Moving in November the artist duet shares an iterative version of the work for Mad House and Reality Research Center.

“With broken (iteration III – for Helsinki) we wanted to refrain from constructing a pre-text to the work. It just didn’t somehow feel right considering the work’s openness and sensibility. The work is a culmination of many different artistic threads and an open frame for the audience to experience without being saddled or burdened with terms, narrative, or ideas of aboutness. Set yourself free!”
– Findlay//Sandsmark

Special musical guest Marisa Anderson will play at the conclusion of the performance as a sort of epilogue for this iteration.

Findlay//Sandsmark is a performance company based between Stavanger and Flørli in Lysefjord, making work in a process-driven and collective approach. They work across disciplinary boundaries to create live art that resonates in a circulatory system comprised of equally valued mediums, focused through a choreographic prism and movement–based foundation.

In addition to creating performances and installations, they are also initiators of RIMI/IMIR SceneKunst and Outpost Hillevåg in Stavanger, Norway, and (O)utpost Flørli festival and residency. Both projects are manifestations and extensions of the artistic platform of Findlay//Sandsmark and are related to their continuous and always strong drive and engagement to foster and make spaces for artistic exchange, curation, and building community.

The performance is part of the Choreographic Convention.
