Allessandra Eramo aka Ezramo

Ezramo’s research is focused upon the hidden archaic memory in music and upon the writing in its multiple forms. Working with concrète sounds, that are always in relationship with space and territory, means for her exploring her own history and identity intended as part of a collective memory. Her works include compositions, videos, music for theatre and butoh-dance, live performances and installation in interactive and site-specific forms. Her main instrument is the voice, that she radically extends in its technical possibilities and combines with acoustic instruments like prepared zither, piano, percussion, theremin and with field recordings. Ezramo presented her works internationally at art galleries, radio, theatres and multidisciplinary spaces like: Festival Bandit’ Mages Bourges / Stimultania Strasbourg / 54th International Art Exhibition Venice Biennale / Radia.fm Network Ausland Berlin / Fitz Theater Stuttgart / Wizytujaca Gallery Warsaw Italian Culture Institute Stuttgart / Loft Cologne / 21 Grand Oakland, Ca Chapman University Los Angeles / Quiet Cue Berlin / Hörbar Hamburg Ex-Siri Centro per le arti contemporanee Terni / Geiger Copenhagen. Trained since very young in classical singing and piano, Ezramo studied at the Academy of Fine Arts Brera in Milan, Italy(B.A. cum laude) and in Stuttgart, Germany. In 2006 she holds a Master Degree in Performance Art at the Faculty of Philosophy of the State University Ca’ Foscari Venice, Italy. Besides her project-oriented works, since 2005 she is involved in an intense concert activity as soloist and in collaboration with renowned musicians, sound artists and dancers, like: Wendelin Büchler – Domenico Sciajno – Xabier Iriondo Edoardo Marraffa – Rinus van Alebeek – LaDonna Smith – Christian Wolfarth Fred Frith – Gino Robair – Liz Allbee – David Fenech – Luca Venitucci Simone Rueß – Stefano Ferrian – Ulrike Kley – Oliver Prechtl – Anna Barth Jon Raskin – Stevko Busch – Hannes Lingens – Klaus Janek – Axel Haller Torsten Papenheim – Wiracki – Matthias Schneider Hollek – Alexandre Kittel – AMP2 Paul Hubweber – Phillip Greenlief – Shudder Trio – Melissa Melpignano
