Home.
I am a free improvising and composing clarinet and saxophone player, rooted in jazz and contemporary classical music. With a background in social anthropology, I also have a deep interest in ethnic and traditional music, which has led me to perform with West African ensembles alongside musicians from Senegal and Ghana.
My artistic focus lies in exploring the sonic possibilities of my instruments—often preparing them with musical tools or everyday objects. I also experiment with electronics and feedback, blending acoustic textures with extended techniques and live processing.
While developing a solo concept remains important to me, my primary passion is creating intricate, collaborative soundscapes and dynamic, noise-infused interactions with other artists.
