I’ll take care of you – selected audio works

I’ll take care of you is a collection of selected audio works for Pixelache Festival 2021, curated by festival co-director Laura Gustafsson:

Louise Ölund’s The Nest views fire, not in the way domesticated humans often do, but from distance. She writes in the description of the work about seeing the herd, not fire – the community, not technology – as an engine of survival.

In Daniela Solis’ sound work there are thousands of mexican women, gathered together, fighting to be heard, fighting to not be “comfortably silenced”, and ultimately, fighting for their lives. Yoojin Lee’s piece is also about resistance, though the tone is different. She argues that knowledge builds with time, attention and care, not by force and macho ideas of constant growth. “The cistern contains, fountains overflow.” We need our anger and we need to point it towards those who deserve it. But we also need to grieve, to mourn. Before hearing Christa Wall’s laments in her and Andreea Vladut’s sound performance I did not know how much I missed moirologists
