Clara de Asis

A beautiful drone like a line shaping in time, from silence to silence. Clara de Asís is an electroacoustic music composer and experimental guitarist, born in 1988 in Spain and based in France. Her musical practice is held away from any formal academicism, aiming to transcend conventional instrumental approaches. She works mainly on prepared electric guitar, focuses on exploring the specificities of her instrument, and develops them both in live situations and throughout electroacoustic compositional processes within sounds from several sources. She often choices minimalist frameworks, which allows her to explore a certain idea or parameter until reaching its full development. Her music has been promoted on many international scenes, and she collaborates regularly with sound artists and contemporary musicians (among others: Noël Akchoté, Antez, d’Incise, Golem Mécanique, Emmanuel Lalande, Nicolas Dick, Miguel A. García).
