TAKKUUK is a new immersive installation from BICEP,
visual artist Zak Norman and filmmaker Charlie Miller
that explores the lives, communities and challenges facing
artists Indigenous to the Arctic Region.
Created in partnership with the charity In Place of War, as
part of their EarthSonic programme, the installation sees
the renowned Northern Irish electronic duo — otherwise
known as Andy Ferguson and Matthew McBriar —
collaborating with a number of Indigenous vocalists,
including Katarina Barruk, Andachan, Sebastian Enequist
(from Sound of the Damned), Tarrak, NUIJA, Niilas and
Silla. The vocals were recorded in 2024 by Detroit-based
producer and musician Matthew Dear in Árni Árnason
from The Vaccines studio, during Iceland Airwaves
festival in Reykjavík. The resulting demos, combined
with additional field recordings taken by Ferguson from
the Russell Glacier in Greenland, form the backbone of
this unique soundtrack, which BICEP then produced and
recorded in their London studio.
