///as TraumaZone///
TraumaZone is a live-coding duo based in Leipzig, consisting of Ksenia Sova, a video artist and Fyodor Stepanov, a sound designer. Their main focus is to politicize the art community by bringing to the spotlight important questions and creating a safe space for discussion.
As a collective they try to avoid the standard musician+VJ formula and strive to achieve the organic interaction and confluence of aural and visual elements, which means, even though each of us is responsible for their part during the development stage, they don't have a clear division of tasks during our performances, but rather navigate their compositions together as a whole.
Ksenia Sova (they/them) is a media artist based in Germany. They studied media art at the Academy of Fine Arts Leipzig, Germany. They work are especially interested in exploring topics connected with alienation, isolation and anxiety of a queer body in digital environments. They use an expanded cinema approach to create time-based art-pieces for personal and group exhibitions.
