Biography
Salômé Guillemin creates set designs, instruments, experimental music performances and sound installations accompanied by graphic scores. Her sonic practice centres on the exploration of drone music as an immersive sound form. Rooted in a minimalist aesthetic, her work focuses on textures, sustained frequencies, and the near-imperceptible evolution of sound over time. These subtle dynamics encourage a deepened awareness of listening, interrogating how sound exerts power, how it activates our senses and how we inhabit acoustic space.
Guillemin’s work has been presented at numerous venues and festivals, including La Bâtie, Centre d’Art Contemporain, Archipel, cave12, Pavillon ADC, L’Abri, Festival Akouphène, La Comédie, C’est déjà demain, and Les 6 toits in Geneva; NIFF in Neuchâtel; Kunstraum Walcheturm and Sonic Matter in Zurich; La Cambre in Brussels; the International Triennial of Design and Social Innovation in Liège; and through the ECART network (European Ceramic Art & Research Team) at Palazzo Trevisan in Venice.
