sofi aka Sofia Zaiceva is a multidisciplinary sound artist and performer from Latvia based in Helsinki. Her musical focus lies in the field of experimental electronic music, characterised by a technologically driven approach that prioritises immersion.
Using improvisational and interactive methods, her performance aims to create two different "living organisms" - one manifested in code and the other embodied by the human performer. Inspired by the centuries-old Japanese art form of 'kintsugi', she offers a transformative perspective on experiencing moments of rupture, imperfection and the ability to rebuild and reconstruct. The unpredictable nature of the cross-feedback strands will foster a dialogue between the performer, the code via the audio software SuperCollider and the space, resulting in novel sonic, bodily and kinetic experiences.
sofi is SHAPE+ artist 2024. In cooperation with SHAPE+ Sound, Heterogeneous Art and Performance in Europe. Supported by the European Union’s “Creative Europe” Program.
