XEXA

XEXA‘s practice reflects the exploration of sound through a hybrid of traditional African rhythms with synthesisers, sound design and voice. A sonic aesthetic that promotes new networks of affiliation, cooperation and solidarity, through an experience that transcends the mere act of listening — “Walk into, instead of listening to, an ambience”.

XEXA is a Portuguese multidisciplinary afrofuturist artist of São Toméan descent. Her debut album “Vibrações de Prata” was released by Príncipe Discos in 2023.

This performance forms part of the programme for the first edition of Fogo Fátuo.
