Paris-based Nina Garcia plays electric guitar to create a sound half way between improvised music and noise.
Her set up is reduced to a minimum: a guitar, a pedal, an amp with which she sculpts sound and delves into chaos to bring out the unheard-of. Her concerts draw audiences into an immersive sonic space where power and fragility intersect with communicative intensity.
In just a few years, she has attracted the attention of numerous international stages.
Her solo work focuses on gesture and research into the instrument, its resonances, its limits, its extensions, its impurities, its audible corners: working with or against it, containing it or letting it sound, supporting it or assault it.
A duo rather than a solo, it stuns with its blend of technical mastery and total freedom. A convergence of wildness and tenderness with her instrument, a tense corps à corps between two vibrant souls for a music and choreography of raw poetry.
