Inga Hakonardottir

The work of Inga Huld Hákonardóttir is situated in the field of performance and choreography and on occasion branches into music/ concert. Her work generally focuses on seeking friction between the symbolic and the sensorial. Inga graduated from the P.A.R.T.S, Brussels in 2014 and has been working in the field of performance, with a home base in Brussels since.
Inga's most recent performance work 'Neind Thing' proposes a quest for nothingness through forms of positive rejection as reaction to an omnipresent overload and overstimulation. Nothingness as a practice for elimination, as a dance, as a symbol and a ritual for 3 performers, a percussionist and a light designer all equally present on stage.
Her work 'Again The Sunset' was made in collaboration with artist and musician Yann Leguay and proposes new materials as instruments such as axes logs and tonal stones creating both a laborious and sonic engagement with the materials. Voice, body and object have a rather equal importance in this work and these elements weave into each other to create a whole. This work exists in different versions and has cracked its way into the noise music scene being presented in multiple radical and renown music festivals such as LUFF (Lausanne Underground Film and Music Festival) and Sonic Protest, Paris and other cities.

Inga collaborates extensively with choreographer Rósa Ómarsdóttir and created works with choreographer Katie Vickers. She also performs in works of other authors and has worked with artists such as Phia Ménard, Salva Sanchis, Eleanor Bauer, Erna Ómarsdóttir, Veli Letovahra, Halla Ólafsdóttir and Gabel Eiben.
