Tracing a timeline of Lucrecia Dalt’s sonic trajectory is an elusive endeavor. As a musician, sound artist, performer, and composer, Dalt has traversed a myriad of musical portals, relaying innate sensory impulses and excavated references into luminous constellations. Following the acclaimed releases of Anticlines (2018) and No era sólida (2020), Dalt returns in 2022 with her eighth solo album ¡Ay! – conjuring a new realm where her signature experimentation and treasured early influences meld together. Glimmers of her musical origins, also diffused through her previous records, are cast by specters of growing up in Colombia, where a spectrum of tropical music genres formed a part of her surrounding environments. In her work for screen, Dalt composed the original scores for the films Catábasis (dir. Regina de Miguel) and The Seed (dir. Sam Walker) in 2021, as well as the score for the HBO series The Baby (2022). Her projects also include the 2018 performance V.I.T.R.I.O.L. with Regina de Miguel and Ania Nowak, as well as the sound installations Dazwischen with Camille Mandoki, Sarah Winters and Jordi Salvadó presented at the Mies van der Rohe Pavilion (Sonar Festival, 2019), and You Will Go Away One Day But I Will Not with Maria Thereza Alves, presented at the Botanical Garden of Berlin (CTM, 2020). Dalt was also recently commissioned to create the audiovisual essay Pedis Possessio (Jump Cut / CTM, 2022) in collaboration with Aina Climent, Judit J. Ferrer and Miguel Prado.
