1 ELISABETH KLINCK

Elisabeth Klinck (1995) is a contemporary violinist, composer and performer based in Brussels, Belgium. With a background in electroacoustic composition and theatre she navigates through emotional landscapes using intimate sound textures and atmospheric tones. She studied at the Lemmensinstuut, The Royal Conservatory of Brussels and at Academy for Music & Drama in Gothenburg, where she acquired a masters in Orchestral Performance.

Klinck’s work can be an overwhelming force, but fragile at the same time. Her debut album ‘Picture a Frame’ will be released on Hallow Ground (Kali Malone, FujiIIIIIIIIIIta,…) in April and is a beautiful collage that functions as a sonic diary for the time she spent in the Spanish Pyrenees with longtime collaborator Oscar Claus.

As a performer of composed and improvised music she often collaborates with different artists and organisations. This sense of community is as important in her music as it is in her day-to-day life. Previous collaborations include: Miet Warlop (One Song), Ben Bertrand, Lieselot Siddiki, Jarne Van Loon, OffOff Film, Kopergieterij, Benjamin Abel Meirhaeghe, Nils Vermeulen and many more

2 LIEW NIYOMKARN

Liew Niyomkarn is a sound and musician based in Brussels. Coming from sound experimental practice and performance, her work focuses on listening practice and conveying memories through sound.  She uses field recordings to detect time,  (non)-human voices, everyday routines, text,  archrival sounds, and different tuning systems in nature – to combine them with a sonic palette and the properties of sound itself such as sounds of spaces – she presents her work in the form of live performance and sound installation.

Liew holds MFA Calarts and Sonology course in The Hague.  Liew has performed in many various places such as High Zero Festival (Baltimore), Studio Loos (Den Haag), WORM (Rotterdam), STUK (Belgium), DAAD (Berlin), The Wulf (Los Angeles), Toneelhuis (Antwerp) and among other places. Liew has taught graphic score workshops and made a radio show with a long-term collaborator, Velma Spell.
