Perila

Perila is a St. Petersburg-born, Berlin-based sound and visual artist, DJ, performer and poet exploring sensitive borderlines and depths of subtle matter. Her practice centres around textures, tangibility and spatiality of field-recorded sound, raw emotions, voice, poetry, body and change. Music as a healing and transformative agent; an invitation to open other layers of engagement with reality using deep listening, observation, presence and mutual dialogue with an audience.

Her performances and DJ sets are dense and intense narratives drifting through a rich sonic palette immersing a listener into a personal and sensual trip, while delicate poetry and soft voice breathe with a sense of closeness, desire and release. She aims to create other sound worlds to get lost and find oneself, to challenge and overcome boundaries and share this expansion with the Other.

Perila’s works have been released on Smalltown Supersound, Sferic, The Trilogy Tapes, Shelter Press, Longform Editions, Motion Ward, 3XL, Paralaxe Editions, Vaagner, Boomkat and Lillerne Tapes. She is the founder of WET: an online community featuring sensual podcasts with spoken word, poetry, ASMR, field recordings, and explorations of sonic sexuality. She is also a co-founder of radio.syg.ma.
