"Ibiza is so often associated with parties and nightclubs that one would almost forget the beauty of the landscape. Cercle proposes to combine the two by installing Giorgia Angiuli on the side of a cliff, facing the magical island of Es Vedrà, at a height of over 1200 ft. It is said that in antiquity mermaids were found there to attract sailors, who threw themselves into the water and drowned. Only Odysseus, thanks to his cunning, was able to escape them. Even today, many legends report compasses losing their bearings when approaching the island, or of an extraterrestrial base. But the machines of the Italian artist Giorgia Angiuli do not seem to have been confused by Es Vedrà, and if there is magical power, it is that of inspiration striking! The musician and producer is fascinated by pink, as evidenced by her tights and coat of the day but also the name of her first album In A Pink Bubble, skillfully mixes techno and her kawaii world full of toys. After years of conservatory training and classical guitar, she began experimenting with new live techniques to develop a very personal electronic music with unusual instruments, in the manner of Björk, one of her great influences. The traditional computer-keyboard-machine configuration here is adorned with a theremin, a flute, a plastic gun, or an otamatone, a toy in the shape of an eight note with eyes and a mouth on the head of the note, a Japanese instrument with a rather unbearable sound that she manages to make pleasant ... a feat! At dusk on the Balearic Islands, Giorgia Angiuli offers us a set that, behind her childish lightness, hides a great artist worthy of the best clubs on the island. Etienne Geremia".
