The Break of down is an installation and a documentary story, based on the magical material eider down. Vibeke Steinsholm works as an artist, bird tender and communicator based on the island of Vega in the south of Nordland. She works project-based and cooperates with both people and birds. Many of her projects are inspired by the 1000-year-long collaboration between humans and seabirds which is the basis for the Vega Islands World Hertage status. In the Beak of down you also hear the sound installaiton Bratøy 2024 by Alexander Rishaug.
