Lineage 
A network of roots and mycelium, entangled in symbiotic exchange. Bodily transmission as the qualitative, deepened process. To be the host animal to that which must live, to offer our fur as a reserve for a wilderness to flourish.

LINEAGE - Rottrådar

Alexandra Nilsson / Solovkina is a composer, musician and soundartist based in Stockholm, Sweden.

Her work stretches across acoustic and electroacoustic music, sound art, noise and performative practices. Lyrical as well as brutal, minimalist and maximalist, her art extends the most subtle expressions to the harsh and fierce. She searches for organic transformations and the transcendence of the material. With a background in jazz and folklore, energy movement and rhythm are also important aspects of her practice.

In 2010 she received a Masters Degree in composition at the Royal College of Music in Stockholm. Her Master focused on music for film and she is continuously interested in interactions between sound and image and narrative aspects.

She has composed for chamber ensembles and orchestra, as well as for theatre, dance and film, and she collaborates on a regular basis with visual artists and musicians/performers internationally with performances in Sweden, Norway, Germany, France, Iceland, Japan, Russia and Brazil.
