EPISODE 1 – Playing in Nature with Thora Dolven Balke

Ludo Sounds

FH010037

This summer Cara Stewart ventured to Kvalnes in the north of Norway to visit Thora in her mother’s studio to talk about her unique approach to art making. Dancing between film, photographic images and sound, Thora seems to experience the world with her eyes wide open–constantly capturing the narratives immediately around her.

In this episode Thora shares her current investigations into radio plays as well as experiments with field recordings of the natural reverb of Kvalnes mountain tops and thrown rocks. She discusses the surreal contrast of city life with the silence of the Arctic. Some of these explorations into sound are covered here in an interview staged in early September 2015, with recordings and sketches further developed for an exhibition curated by Thora at the Jimei x Arles International Photo Festival in Xiamen in November 2015.

Many thanks to AK Dolven for her kind hospitality and willingness to create space for people to explore the natural beauty of Lofoten.
