Francesco Cavaliere, born in Piombino in 1980, is an Italian sound artist, writer and visual maker who lives between Berlin and Turin. His work enlivens the listener's inner states through a polymorphic activity that binds together writing, sound, voice, drawing and sculpture, stimulating the imagination and setting off long imaginary journeys crossed by ephemeral, invented presences. His records, on labels such as Hundebiss, Boring Machines and Black Truffle, and his live performances are closer to spoken fairy tales set to electronics than to conventional music: tiny synthetic sounds, glass, stones and a murmuring voice building surreal narrative worlds.
