SUSANNAH STARK’s new album opens with questions that set its reflective tone while drifting on a current of birdsong, rivers and synths. Sung in Gaidhlig and English, her second album for Stroom and Night School, ‘Minor Gestures’, is a dialogue between place, history and the listener. Collaborating with experimental and folk musicians in Glasgow, Stark navigates acoustic textures with fluidity while blending breath, drone and rhythm. The result is a meditative soundscape that celebrates vulnerability and curiosity. From the responsive waters of ‘Caochan’ to the unanswered queries of ‘Ceistean gun freagairtean’, this is ritualistic sonic poetry.

POTIK is artist Karolina Lebek, working across a range of media including video, photography, sound, installation and live performance. Her practice, exploring interests in consciousness, ecology and mental health, gives new form to the exploration of the sacred, the ritual and the body, in the context of geological time. Through the desire to capture the affect of memory, she’s expressing subtle and perturbing worlds, building her own lexicon of symbolic language, populated by unspoken narratives, and haunting material mysteries, exploring emotional and physical worlds, both within oneself and those around us.
