Mindful Image and Unique Beauty is a chamber music project that combines new composed music with visual art. The concerts are defined as live exhibitions where the audience sits amongst the art and the musicians, blurring the boundary between artist and audience.
The project involves exclusively female artists from all over the world: four female composers from Sweden, Germany and Chile, four female musicians from Germany, Portugal, Spain and Norway, and two female visual artists from Portugal. This project thus offers the opportunity for intercultural and interdisciplinary collaboration.
The outstanding feature of this project is the world premiere of newly composed music by women. In the context of the overarching theme of beauty, a focus will be placed on female appearance and the problems associated with it.
The project presents beauty as an individual asset, regardless of age, weight, origin, hair, and skin color. We want to encourage women to reflect on their own interpretation of beauty, to accept themselves more and to be less influenced by the beauty ideals of our time. We see the aim of the project as sharpening women's awareness of their own individual beauty, which is defined completely independently of what the consumer society and transient aesthetics dictate to us. We also hope to attract attention with our project and inspire other artists to create similar projects.
The premiere will take place on June 7th and 8th, 2025 at the Inter-Arts Center (Black Room) in Malmö, Sweden.
We plan on releasing an album around November 2025 with all the compositions that will be premiered on these dates. Further concerts in other European countries are planned for the end of 2025 and 2026.
