Veils (vinyl)

Réka Csiszér is a Hungarian vocalist, composer, performer, and a multidisciplinary artist from Transylvania. A prolific artist active in numerous multidisciplinary projects and collaborations, Csiszér aims to create conceptual, audio-visual works steeped in science fiction and avant-garde experimentation. As VÍZ, she presents a new project and her first solo album via BlauBlau Records. The conceptual audio-visual work ‘Veils’ is an elegiac body horror soundtrack in seven stages, dealing with themes of duality, unreality, the corporeal, language, self & identity, nature, and the pursuit of ancestral provenance.

Accompanying the record is an abstract, psychotronic short film, spanning three chapters, made in collaboration with Radiana Basso - a filmmaker from Ticino (Switzerland). Inspired by Alejandro Jodorowsky’s concept of ‘psicomagia’, each chapter represents the encounter of assorted personas within Csiszér’s familial constellation.
