NAAMA FREEDMAN

Commisioned by Lumpen Station in Bern as a sound work for their radio archive, Anche niente è qualcosa is an existential reflection, corresponding to the artist's state of mind at the time of recording. Inspired by a passage in "Se questo è un uomo" by Primo Levi, the sound piece combines vocal and found object samples set over a layered but minimal musical soundscape. Manipulated excerpts from "Seinfeld" accentuate the duality of joy and grief in the human condition as explored by Levi.
