NYOKABI KARIŪKI - "GALU"

'With ????, I wanted to preserve the freeing feeling of releasing your body into the quiet sway of the waves; and the freeing feeling of being able to finally breathe out, completely' - Nyokabi Kariūki.

Easing into that lunar pull of waves against the body, the Kenyan artist Nyokabi Kariūki offers a swelling and expanding experimental composition that marries her vocal explorations and expressive percussive elements that play just out of the pocket and add additional layered noise and texture. It's a beautiful, challenging and captivating piece from this accomplished experimental artist.
