The butterfly’s shame before its life as a caterpillar. On Exuvie, Noémi Büchi is interested in what nobody else looks at: not the metamorphosis, not the result – the remains. Exuviae, shed skin. Testimonies to something one no longer wants anything to do with. The Swiss sound artist sets this to crystal-clear sounds, orchestral layers, brutally cracking beats and analogue synthesiser textures. Highly modern and absurdly baroque. »Beneath Form« is the name of one piece. You can shed the skin. Not the memory.
