While in residency at NES Artist Center in Skagastrond, Iceland, home to Iceland’s self proclaimed ‘country western king’, Erica began creating a series of landscape performances called the Cowboys and Vikings Project. Inspired by historical research on westward expansion in American and Viking conquest in Iceland as well as interviews with contemporary re-enactors of these histories, The Cowboys and Vikings project will result in a dual channel video installation with a live performance. This project is anticipated to be completed in 2012. Check out images here.
