‘Starlink’ is the first solo work by ANYX – aka Berlin-based artist, musician and vocalist Anna Lucia Nissen – emerging from her previous work as front-person of the trio Anchoress.

Originally trained as a sculptor, ANYX gradually shifted her practice from physical objects towards voice and performance. While her materials have changed, she continues to sculpt songs with the same attention to form, space and resonance. Starting with voice and language as her primary material, she builds visceral performances in which voice and melody move between fragile intimacy and full-bodied intensity. As these songs unfold, voice, body and space become intertwined, blurring the boundaries between concert, ritual and performance art.

Co-written with previous collaborators Alexander Rathbone and Tobias Textor, ‘Starlink’ represents both a progression and something of a return to ANYX’s roots as a visual artist. She takes a sculptural approach to her songs, starting with her voice and words as internal navigation from which she works outwards. Around this core, she builds minimal instrumentation – harp, keys, guitar, double bass – until each song is muscular and multi-dimensional.
