FRACTURED FREQUENCIES
Date: 30.11.2024
Location: Candid Arts Gallery, London
Event Overview: An immersive night of sensory defiance and fractured reality. Step into an experimental schizophrenia of sound and sight, where conventional boundaries dissolve into a torrent of unsettling beauty and visceral chaos. This new show, blending audio-visual performances with daring set design and continuous projections, invites audiences to embrace a world that refuses categorisation and redefines the limits of perception.
Among the featured artists is Leonid Kotelnikov, whose project fake_trailers embodies an explosive deconstruction of musical and cultural norms. His performances tear apart familiar soundscapes, shattering pop culture clichés and delving deep into the psyche’s darkest recesses. Through his jarring use of postmodern sampledelics, Leonid crafts an intense journey - echoing confusion, fear, and pain, mirroring the fragmented emotions in a time of conflict.
Also taking the stage is KAVARI, known for pushing the boundaries of dark, immersive soundscapes with powerful basslines and raw sonic textures that reflect personal and political struggle. Her music intertwines distortion with intricate beats, constructing a haunting environment that leaves listeners both entranced and unsettled.
Zurkas Tepla adds another dimension with his nonlinear narratives that blend field recordings, fragmented melodies, and experimental electronica. His performances are immersive stories where memory and perception clash, creating a constantly shifting audio landscape that feels both familiar and disorienting.
Rounding out the lineup, Moa Pillar offers hypnotic, primal beats infused with elements of folklore and futuristic sound design. His work builds an intense rhythm, merging electronic intensity with a meditative, otherworldly depth that challenges and expands the listener’s mind.
In this immersive experience, prepare to engage with an unpredictable and raw portrayal of contemporary human chaos, brought to life through provocative visuals, immersive staging, and daring sonic disruption.
