Bio
Rebecca Salvadori (1984) is a London based artist working at the intersection between video art and documentary. She has a long experience of filming environments with a focus on non-hierarchical / chronological layering and sequencing of audio to footage. Her film works act as constellations of highly personal and wilfully elusive heterogeneous elements: multifaceted portraits of moments, people and environments that can be approached from different angles as they move in between personal and transpersonal scales. Over the last 15 years she has consistently engaged with experimental music, with a great interest in finding ways to connect the moving image with sound practices, live performance and alternative forms of storytelling. Among many other works, she’s the author of “Rave Trilogy” (2017-2020), a series of film works dedicated to electronic music shot across Sheffield, London and Morocco’s Agafay desert; “The Sun Has No Shadow” (2022) an intimate visual journey centered on London’s FOLD club and UNFOLD day rave format; “Tresor Tapes” (2022) commissioned by TRESOR and reflecting on different ways of approaching personal & collective archives, memory and club documentation; “Messengers” (2023), creating a collective dimension through reflections on the nature of friendship and music. Salvadori is the co-founder of «Tutto Questo Sentire», an artist-run platform that brings together a group of international researchers to reflect and explore their own personal practices in relation to the experience of sound. Her audio/visual work has been exhibited at venues and festivals such as Atonal (DE), ICA (UK), South London Gallery (UK), Niimoscow Science & Art (RUS), Macro Museum of Contemporary Art (IT), Barbican Art Center (UK), Festival of Film and Animation Olomouc (CZ), Festival IMAGE S(CH), Crosstalk video art Festival (HU), David Lynch’s Silencio (FR), SCHNUCK Glaspalais (NL), Sophiensaele Theatre (DE), Future Everything Festival Manchester (UK), III Point Festival Miami (US), No Bounds Festival x Warp Records(UK), Camden Art Centre on Cork Street (UK), Cafe Oto (UK), Freud Museum (UK).
