As part of our 2024 ARTIST-IN-RESIDENCE PROGRAM<\/a>, we are thrilled to welcome the talented artist Leila Bencharnia. Under the theme \u201cArt as Participation in Social Discourse,\u201d this year we are placing a special focus on the active involvement of the local community, and we are excited to have Godelive with us!<\/p>\n

Leila Bencharnia is a Moroccan composer, sound and textile researcher, and storyteller whose practice interlaces sonic experimentation with the materiality of textiles. Their work examines the parallels between the auditory and the tactile. Inspired by the intricate logic of weaving and the symbolic language of Tamazight textile traditions, Bencharnia constructs works that are about structure, repetition, narrative and resonance. Influenced by the spatial exploration of free jazz and its commitment to improvisation, their compositions become open spaces \u2014 fluid, non-linear, and charged with the potential for sonic transformation. Currently based between Marrakech and Berlin, Bencharnia creates across diverse formats, including sonic installations, acousmatic pieces, graphic scores, and live performances. Their relationship with sound is deeply informed by their upbringing in a village near the Atlas mountains, where the oral and musical traditions of their father, a traditional Moroccan musician, shaped an early belonging with rhythm and texture. Bencharnia\u2019s approach to composition treats sound as a woven fabric, navigating the complexities of the language of textile as a space for interpretation and protest. This methodology not only underpins their creative process but also reflects a broader philosophical inquiry into the ways we listen. By positioning radical listening as a decolonial and embodied act, Bencharnia reimagines sound as a dynamic interplay between structure, memory, and materiality.<\/p>\n

During her stay at Opera Village, she will work alongside other artists and local partner organizations, such as the Centre de D\u00e9veloppement Chor\u00e9graphique La Termiti\u00e8re and the Fasocheck Association, to lead interactive workshops on topics such as media literacy, gender equality, and intercultural dialogue. These workshops will provide the local community with the opportunity to experience art as a tool for social change and gain new perspectives. We are excited to welcome Leila to Opera Village this year and look forward to the creative insights she will bring to our community.<\/p>\n
