"One day City’s came to town. Some people would argue City’s just like any other mall, eating culture and souls, leaving it to rot in its dysfunctional digestive system. But how would they know? The saying went like this; once you go to City’s, you’ll never go back. Born from mist, she’s like a custom made divination, serving you all your prophecies in paper-wrapped lies."

“Clones” tells the story of a never-ending winter from the perspective of a narrator and her experience of dreaming in multiple states. In the absence of shifting seasons, dreaming becomes the primary state of transformation.

In four-hour daily cycles, this narrator wakes up, falls asleep, and dreams amidst a pervasive hum that takes possession of her body and summons a familiar visitor. Together, these bodies exist somewhere and elsewhere, gliding through landscapes while nurturing their fading memories into a new figuration.

When recognizable cycles disappear, new patterns appear. Taking place in a moment frozen in time, “Clones” documents the memories of two sources and of a symbiosis becoming parasitical.

WANNA KISS MYSELF was a four channel installation commissioned by Audra Festival's 2024 edition, reflecting on the themes of islands and rave-culture. The sound piece consists of an orchestra of electronic dance music genres such as UK garage and drum and bass-here stripped off their bass, drums and synthesizers – left only with the vocals and lyrics, often already sampled from elsewhere. Whether it be full sentences, murmurs or atmospheric singing these haunted and often familiar voices build a ghost-like choir.
