Forecast Festival and CTM Continue Collaboration

We are looking forward to continuing our collaboration with Forecast Festival within the scope of their transdisciplinary mentorship programme, which each year pairs emerging artists with established practitioners. Within the field of sound, this year's mentor Heinali has nominated three participants to work towards a presentation for this coming edition of Forecast. Following a period of working and mentorship, the performers will present their projects in front of a live audience, and one will be selected to produce their work for presentation at CTM 2027.

Anna Ivchenko proposes a multi-channel audio installation that casts Ukrainian harvest songs and lamentations as metaphors for cycles of life, death, and return, reflecting on occupation as territorial loss and rupture of knowledge and cultural continuity.

Mozambican artist and operatic singer Mariana Carrilho proposal centers on original music and memory. Conceived as an homage to her ancestors and to Mwani women facing war and displacement, the female voice is framed as a site of continuity and resistance. 

Drawing from the alchemical philosophy of accessing spirit through the working of matter, Pablo V Cazares is developing a score for The Cloud of Unknowing, a 14th-century treatise on the impossibility of accessing God through the rational mind. 

See their presentations at the 10th anniversary of Forecast next week from July 16 to 19.
