about

ALVA 3 is a book and music release by Xenia Lopez and Sophia Ioannou Gjerding. The publication is based on musical pieces presented first time in the video installation ALVA II (2019) at Kunsthal Aarhus and later on at CLICK festival and Video Art Festival Turku i Finland.

The music consists of songs and voice compositions accompanied by piano. 6 different voices are singing and telling fragmented stories, relating to the paranormal as a welcoming place to which one can indulge when there is no space in the "normal".
In the book the song texts are printed together with drawings made in a continuation of the universe from the video installation ALVA II. A four-headed hydra monster, a cabbage head, hydroponic growing systems, water and vocal tracts.
