"...has an imperial, exacting beauty." (The Wire)
“…few albums have hit us as hard as Caterina Barbieri’s 70-minute opus, Patterns Of Consciousness. On her debut full-length, Barbieri commands tsunami-height waves of arpeggiated analog synths." (Fact Mag)
"Patterns Of Consciousness finds Caterina Barbieri at her best, elegantly moving between melodically pleasant yet twisted sequences and comforting, reassuring sonic spaces. Every piece, while given a singular identity, is part of the bigger picture: a work of art that will push you, pull you, and then eventually leave you with your back against the wall once you get to the last track. " Alessandro Cortini (Nine Inch Nails)

“Chia’s artistic identity is one that defies the artificial borders and boundaries of the modern nation state.  Going beyond the notion of the individual simply as a constituent of a nation and its projected cultural identity, (s)he bypasses the need for mass appeal or approval and instead subscribes to the independent nature that characterises folk – the resistance to a canon.” – June Yap, The WIRE

Tara Transitory aka One Man Nation makes work which some consider art, some consider music. and some consider trash. Clearly, it never quite fits into neatly demarcated categories. She is trans, nomadic, and an explorer at the intersections of gender, noise, and ritual through sound, performance, and collective trance.

Tara fluctuates between Berlin (Germany) and Chiang Mai (Thailand) where she directs the performance space e x t a n t a t i o n.  Artistically, she works together with Nguyễn Baly as Nguyễn+Transitory on trying to approach sound, synthesis, noise, rhythm, and performance from a less colonial angle as well as trying to empirically learn more of the various Southeast Asian+diaspora queer existences and histories with a hopefully non-academic perspective.  Concurrently, she is working on International //gender|o|noise\\ Underground, a collection of video documents made of ephemeral public interventions done in collaboration with other trans* women such as Jenny Quỳnh Phương, Nguyễn Thiện Phúc and Kandy Zyanide (สุกุล ดงน้อย).

Tara performs solo as One Man Nation, with Nguyễn Baly as Nguyễn+Transitory, with Truna as { 23 Shadows of Amnesia } and with Pierre Bastien as Mecanation.  An extensive collaborator, her past collaborators include Kakushin Nishihara, Chaiwat Prumprajum, Tzu Ni, Shian Law, Thanisa Fah, Bambu Wukir and Iman Jimbot (The Future Sounds Of Folk).  Tara has performed internationally at CTM (Berlin), donaufestival (Krems), Gaite Lyrique (Paris), Guggenheim Museum (Bilbao), Tokyo Performing Arts Meeting (Yokohama), Museum of Contemporary Art (Taipei) and Wienerfestwochen (Vienna) among many others.
