KLANGSPUREN - KATARINA GRYVUL: SPOMYN

Program:

 SPOMYN, 2025 Michał Labijak, light art

Katarina Gryvul lives in different worlds—at least on the surface. She studied violin and composition in Poland, produced pop-influenced electronic music on the side, and also worked as a composer in the gaming industry. But on her latest album SPOMYN, which she presents at Klangspuren, it becomes clearer than ever how different aesthetics can flow into one another and create something third beyond all boundaries. Blunt emotions sometimes brutally break through the structural finesse of the compositions, angelic voices layer themselves and push their way into high-resolution digital sounds. SPOMYN, meaning “memory” in English, musically reflects what Katarina Gryvul also deals with conceptually: the core of the individual, the uniqueness of our being, both shaped not only by our experiences, but also by those of our ancestors. In each track, something lost, distorted, almost forgotten flickers, but subcutaneously influences the personality in the present. Even though Gryvul does not want to deal directly with the war in her Ukrainian homeland artistically, she has been living in a new world for more than three years. Something has broken in it, the memory of a before is blurred.
