ANN ROSÉN

ANN ROSÉN (SE).

Ann Rosén (born 1956) is the composer, musician and artist who began her career in the visual arts in the 1980s with interactive, intelligent, and intriguing works. Since the 1990s, the artistic focus has been on music and sound art and Rosén has more than one hundred works behind her. The works have been performed at concert halls, opera houses, festivals around the world. Rosén has played at clubs in Europa and Australia and participated in everything from underwater concerts to international festivals. She is also one of the founders of Syntjuntan, a trio of composers who for about ten years together with the audience sewed synths and then performed electroacoustic music on them.

Rosén’s art revolves around the exploration of interpersonal communication, how we can understand ourselves in relation to the outside world and the barriers that can arise between us and others.

In her most recent project Drawing Sessions and on her latest album Dilate, Rosén performs unique graphite drawings connected to live electronics that are created in front of the audience. The pencil is the instrument that controls the whole soundscape and Rosén is the musician, conductor, sound engineer and composer – all at the same time.
