During her residency at the CEM, Salomé will work on a new album of experimental songs, whose poetic subject is combined with the therapeutic dimension that is particularly close to her heart. This new creative project promises to be a virtuous cycle of semi-written semi-improvised pieces, exploring both acoustic and electronic textures, all dressed in a visual setting related to the themes addressed: intuition, fear, letting go, isolation, meditation, change, transformation, healing. Words at the heart of the artistic approach of this committed singer-songwriter, eager to go ever further in the exploitation of her spiritual purpose through sound creation. Also a master's student in composition and sound creation at the University of Montreal, Salomé will take her "research-healing" project led by Myriam Boucher out of the university setting, to bring it to life at the CEM by collaborating with exceptional performers.
