Wednesday, June 10thSARA FLINDT: WWWEBSITE LAUNCH + CONCERT
15:00-22:00
2500kr / 2000kr students / pay what u can
Join the launch of www.saraflindt.com (a virtual world), a website created in collaboration between Sara Flindt and Janousch Kratz, followed by a concert by Flindt in the evening.
The website reflects Sara Flindt’s artistic practice of working with multiple versions of songs that never settle into a final form. It functions as a small evolving CV and ecosystem, where materials, fragments, and new iterations will continuously be uploaded over time. The site explores hierarchy in music and language and exists entirely without text.
Developed over almost a year, www.saraflindt.com unfolds as an open structure rather than a fixed presentation—an environment where music, process, and documentation coexist and shift.
The event takes place on June 10th at Mengi in Reykjavík, opening as an informal open house from 15:00–20:00 with snacks and drinks, where guests are invited to experience and navigate the website for the first time. Later in the evening, the program continues with a concert at Mengi.
------
Sara Flindt welcomes you to the other side of the Gutenberg parenthesis. She’s been waiting there for you ever since she first understood what you didn’t mean.
Her artistic practice is because it’s imperfect. Her sound is best described as mutable. Some of it is made of songs. Some of it is already gone. She performs live, sometimes digitally and other times with her fingers, and also at www.saraflindt.com, [a virtual world] which in turn performs living. But that’s neither hear nor the air: [either way,] the goal is to make the textual textural, or altogether oral. Her improvised work is a dialogue with the present, which echoes the past, unless it’s the other way around: dyslexia makes a girl suspicious of structure. And without fixed grammatical rules, how can anything break the bond between us?
Without the weight of the words on her shoulder, this is expressed through her solo project as well as the duo slóra (IS/DK), and a collaborative project with Polish composer Szymon Wójcik. Recent releases include the albums when you rub your eyes, you see things you can’t describe and tearstobealone (slóra).
In August, she will release an EP in collaboration with author Cecilie Lind, who has made a remix of Sara’s lyrical fragments.
