For ”Conversations” SALOMEA meets three female* artists for a special mixed arts collaboration. Based on three talks a multidimensional piece of art was formed: three songs as an EP, the conversations as a podcast that dives deeper and a movie as the centerpiece that bundles all the perspectives, knowledge, experiences and passion of the artists involved.
Musician Rebekka SALOMEA, performance artist & writer Sophie Yukiko, director Svenja Trierscheid and jewelry & fashion artist Luise Zücker teamed up to rethink what making art is today, to talk representation, responsibility and the power of community and by that: create more than music, more than a music video.
The combination of elements from analogue movie making, fashion editorials, contemporary performance art, voguing, the collaborative way of content creation and the futuristic music melting pot as the soundtrack turns “Conversations” into poetry - into an extraordinary visual and sonic experience.

The podcasts - the original Conversations - were the starting point for what turned out to become a unique mixed arts collaboration, bigger than we had ever imagined. The idea was to hear female* artists talk about their work, their expertise. Everything that followed was based on these talks: three songs as an EP and an expressive art film as the centerpiece of an awesome story.
