Hand Clap, is the moniker of Maya Borjesson, an Architect and visual/sound Artist. Using synthesizers, spoken word, and field recordings, their compositions explore themes of connection, memory, nostalgia and grief.
This year Hand Clap embarked on a tour of Japan, supported Penelope Trappes and presented ‘A Thread Beneath Our Skin’ at No Vacancy Gallery. This body of visual and sound work, traced the layered and intimate terrain of connection - between individuals, identities, and past and present selves - it was a practice of listening outward, as well as, to the quiet within. 
Hand Clap’s practice is deeply personal and sits at the crossroads of ambient music, electronic experimentation, string composition, and visual art.

From an early age Sharanya has had a distinct connection and curiosity with music, in particular with musical patterns and their intricate melodic properties. Growing up in Malaysia her attentions were diverted to a number of musical scenes as varied as classical Indian and Western music which eventually lead to electronic music. Moving to Australia in 2009, she soon started attending local parties in Perth and Melbourne. Collecting music most of her life, she soon found herself immersed with this new electronic sound she discovered. It wouldn't be long before she realised that she really desired to be on the other side of the DJ booth. Her DJ career began in earnest and over the following years she started playing at after parties, small clubs and gatherings, establishing her name and her sound of minimal techno and micro house. She’s played in Melbourne, Sydney, Berlin, Barcelona, Romania and Lithuania. Her sound invites you to go on a journey with her in her spaceship.

I like to play with sound in my spare time. Modular soundscapes, techno beats, electronic journeys, and sometimes housey tunes are what seems to be seeping from my creative pores. Happy listening and have fun peeps.
