About Aylin Leclaire
The night will also feature a performance from musical artist, Aylin Leclaire. With her folky, dark pop electro sound, Aylin takes us on journeys into other worlds and dimensions. Using a mixture of atmospheric sounds, complex beats and experimental elements, she joins the ranks of performers such as Kate Bush, Björk and Jenny Hval.
With her virtuoso voice, the German-Turkish musician tells emotionally charged stories in which her own life experiences mix with an otherworldly poetry. In her live shows the interdisciplinary artist fuses artistically sophisticated performances with elaborate stage designs to a body of art. Her work is original, critical and playful.
Screening as part of Summer Music Season 2023, presented by music journalist and author, David Quantick. Check out the rest of the films in the series!
