Yorgia Karidi

Yorgia Karidi is a visual and performing artist who composes/improvises electroacoustic music. Since 2001 she has given over 100 performances in theatrical & musical ensembles as well as in solo projects that followed. Her work is informed by various music styles & musical theatre mediums. She touches upon presentational interests that emerge from styles of conversation, vocal qualities, fat beats, humor, sonic & theatrical improvisation. Her art seeks to be Fun, Exciting. She takes controversial shots by using as well as exposing interchanging mediums while trying to surpass a frame of expectations and senses on every step. This is how she approaches a queer identity and this is how she regards her everyday life as well. In Sound Acts, she presented “O KOSMOS MU”, a short performance / musical theatre piece in three parts. The performance is developed around the theme “fragile thoughts & odd associations of a girl on an afternoon that turns to night” and incorporates situationist references and ASMR qualities.
