Mai Ane Pil Siedentopp is a Danish composer and sound artist interested in exploring everyday objects as musical instruments. The work “Enclose” is based on long-term research in the material paper, the forms and sounds this particular material contains. In her works, she aims to create a sensuous and fragile experience, she is inspired by challenging the negative perception the concept fragile often has, and why the introverted feeling and experience is seen as less intense than the extroverted one. What happens if the two play together in their contrasts and create a gentle voice with great volume.
“Enclose” is a part of her study of how graphic notation can be used to convey and support the experience of sound works and art music. In 2021 she releases the collection “Pieces For Paper” the first part of her trilogy, where she examines various paper as instruments. The collection is released as a book with graphical notations and photographs. In late 2021 she will release “Voices For Existing” where “Enclose” will be featured.
