Performative Mixtape-Talk | KBH.G
How can Sandra Knecht's story be told through songs?
Swiss artist Sandra Knecht explores the meaning of "Heimat": geographically, historically, sociologically, philosophically, culinarily and musically. Her new solo exhibition is accompanied by an art book which includes ten mixtapes. Compiled by Sandra Knecht, they use songs to reveal a side of the artist previously unknown to the public; as music has played a key role in her life for much longer than art. In her younger years her heart beat for her father's records, later for house, techno, folk, HC punk, indie and rap.
In the Radio X interview on 20 January, we want to listen to Sandra Knecht's favorite vinyls and find out how the artist was influenced by them. Participation is free of charge, registration via: info@kbhg.ch.
