Tromsø based visual artist and musician Marita Isobel Solberg has been Artist in Residence at The Performance Studio in London, and to mark the end of the residency, NABROAD and The Performance Studio opened the doors to a small group of people for a special treat; performance and a conversation with the artist. As the sun set, with an incredible view of London, we gathered in a circle on the rooftop of V22 as the sound from passing trains in the distance made us move closer to hear Marita tell us more about her research and inspiration, a conversation lead by David Thorp.
