warrioress / add on V2

“Warrioress” is the fifth work to be released within Olicía’s “Out of the Blue” cycle - two individual works of art created from an exchange of ideas and practices. It results from the collaboration with jewellery designer and goldsmith Malene Glintborg in Copenhagen, Denmark.

“Warrioress” is an epic, building song based on percussive samples from Malene’s workshop - drills, hammering noises and soldering - but also keys, synths, and shruti box that lay out a field for the voices of Fama M’Boup and Anna-Lucia Rupp.

“Warrioress” is also the title of a collection of jewellery designed by Malene Glintborg in the process: a whole series of pieces that can be worn in combination with one another or individually. Multiple rings, stud earrings, ear cuffs, a necklace trinket. In conjunction, they create the impression of an armor. In the same way the songs unfolds by adding new elements layer by layer, loop by loop into “the dance of the warrioress”.
