A Conversation with Gjert Rognli

A Conversation with Gjert Rognli

You were awarded the Noo Arts’ Residency Award , could you tell us more about this project and the performance you are planning for Last Frontier in NYC?: I have a performance planned at Last Frontier NYC, where I will combine film, sound and sculpture into a coherent installation. With my project What Nature Knows I wish to combine the themes of contemporary life, dreams, past and present. The shifts are rapid in our time, with polarization and globalization in many directions, we are in an era were worship of youth, consumerism, and the individual prevails. What we are doing today will affect the way people live in the future.
