FRONTROOM
BASS MY TRESPASS: Julia Znoj
Julia Znoj poetically examines, combines, transforms and narrates materials. She seeks to uncover their abstracted roles and meanings by considering: what defines a material’s ends, its demarcation, its energy field? Is there a difference between matter and container? How does language embrace these differences? Interweaving script narration with metallurgical processes, Znoj's work navigates the tension between intuitive truth and empirical fact. The exhibition unfolds as a laboratory of perpetual experimentation and reimagining where materials need fiction to exist.
BACKROOM
SOMA4: Raven Chacon
The fourth episode of SOMA welcomes composer, performer and visual artist Raven Chacon, born in Fort Defiance, Navajo Nation, in the Southwest United States. His work lies at the crossroads of sound art and music composition and here, Chacon presents a sound work based on field recordings of the shifting ice, wildlife, and modern tools in the overwhelmingly harsh environment of the Canadian Arctic, giving a sonic glimpse of a place where humans are rarely present.
Nested in the BACKROOM of KRONE COURONNE, SOMA is a vibrating listening platform that accommodates the practice and research of sound artists through 2025. Built as a result of curator Kristina Grigorjeva’s research that investigates the emancipatory and transformative potential of different listening practices, SOMA invites to listen, linger, vibrate and hear collectively in a shared, plural, response-able and care-full context.
