"Fantastic work. (...) Sounds almost like a musique concrète collage
made from Folkways LP about the removal of the larynx. But it's not!"

The Wire (UK)

"She embodies a noisy experimentation, in a crude art without concessions"

Alessandra Eramo (*1982 Taranto, Italian/German) is a sound artist, vocalist and composer. She creates performative works using voice, sound, text, drawing and video exploring latent acoustic territories of the human voice and noise as socio-political matter. The essence of her practice is to destabilize the normal expectations of the voice to trace a new sense of beauty in sound and language. Blurring the line between performance art, experimental music and sound poetry, her artistic production often adopts relational aesthetics and addresses questions about memory and identity.

She was trained in classical singing, piano and music theory since an early age, she studied Fine Arts in Milan and Stuttgart and completed her Masters Degree in Performance Studies at the Faculty of Philosophy at the Ca' Foscari University in Venice.

Gaining international recognition for her extraordinary vocal performance work, she's exhibited and performed at many electronic music festivals, art galleries, museums, theatres and radio such as: Liminaria/Manifesta12 Palermo, Dystopie Festival Berlin, 6th Thessaloniki Biennale of Contemporary Art, Tempo Reale Festival Florence, Radial System Berlin/Heroines of Sound Festival, Tsonami Festival Chile, FLUSSI Media Arts Festival Avellino, Iklectik London, PACT Zollverein Essen, Kino Šiska Ljubljana/ARS National Radio Slovenia, Electronic Voice Phenomena Think Thank/Liverpool Biennial 2013, Neue Musik St. Ruprecht Vienna, Roulette New York, Audiorama Stockholm, Italian Pavilion in the World/54th Venice Biennale.

Alongside her solo work, she has collaborated with many acclaimed composers, choreographers and artists including Maria Iorio & Raphaël Cuomo, Zorka Wollny, Brandon LaBelle, Noha Ramadan, Ines Lechleitner, Marcus Bastos, Tomomi Adachi, Seiji Morimoto, and Marta Zapparoli.

She is co-founder of "Corvo Records - vinyl & sound art production", and is a member of the sound art collective and project space Errant Sound in Berlin, where she lives and works.
