Incorporeal
Hidden Horse
Vinyl artwork and design for Hidden Horse’s second album “Incorporeal” (the follow-up to 2022’s “Opala” and the band’s first release on vinyl).
This review by Ghosts Box Records about the album reflects my intentions for the project: A journey through odd spaces and echoing caverns, powered along by angular rhythms and hypnotic sequencers. An electronic, motorik tapestry that feels both industrial and organic – like a dystopian Harmonia. Utterly beguiling! – Jim Jupp
music by JB Kyron, Tony Watts + (Arianne Churchman, Clothilde)
recorded and produced by JB Kyron
mixing by Artur David
mastering by Ars Lindberg

Performance
Campus Paulo Cunha e Silva
Esboços para um corpo que se apaga
In January 2022 I was on an artistic residency at the Campus Paulo Cunha e Silva (Porto). Over the weeks I made many drawings, wrote texts and music, recorded sounds and made small performances. The starting point for this work was the relation between body, drawing and time, simultaneously thinking about the possibility of multidisciplinary work. Throughout this process I also created objects that I used in the open studio held at the end of the residency. Today perhaps the title of the work no longer makes so much sense and the focus of the investigation may be different… More news about this work soon.

Vai Vem
A dance between two stones and a shadow
This dance contains many stories: those of empathy, mystery, affection, fantasy. It is imagination that guides each step, each movement, each fragment of the choreography. The shapes of the stones and the shadow are as volatile and multiple as the landscapes that host them, and the sounds that accompany them. It is the absence and emptiness that give us signs of what might be there. Time is that of the page, or rather that of the spectator flipping through it. In each dance is the opportunity to find a new story. The one we want to contemplate and listen to. – Vai Vem

Todos os inícios acabam em dó
with Mariana Viana
Todos os inícios acabam em dó (in Portuguese, “dó” means the musical note C, and also grief and compassion) is a collection of beginnings. It’s a play, a book, a record and a reading session, potentially.
two bodies that push each other to get to know themselves. a stage that starts to melt. a door that opens in the back of an empty room. a landscape, a horizon, a drawing. a flood perceived only when the water reaches the knees. a postcard that begins with the sentence c’est un début. some letters not sent and others not answered. a song ending in C. an unforgiving end. an emptying of a body from inside. and the possibility to start all over again, continuously. – Mariana Viana and Marta Ramos
Through movement, words, drawing and music, a multiplicity of beginnings is being built and dramaturgically stitched between the territories of reality and imagination, between biographical stories and their fiction.
