Artists' Statement
i didn’t think i could be cursed is a collaborative sound work I’ve done with my partner and artist, helo samo, under the name “Botrytis”, for this year’s Drone Day event, which is happening today, May 28th 2022 – the same day as the IASAS Synesthesia and the Student online Symposium. SenSA (Sonic Exploration Network South Africa) is creating a compilation of participating musicians that will be livestreamed on Hamshack Radio and is available on their bandcamp.
samo and I created a collaborative artwork for our sound work using vegan acrylic paint on wood board. It has the same title as the track.
If you like drone metal & post metal, this one’s for you. You’re welcome to download the Botrytis track from our bandcamp.
