Bio
Utilizing music as an approach to explore the potential of ceremonial engagement, Xuri enters the shadow sides of imaginary spaces and dwells at the spring of creation. Her music is a flight through soundscapes paced by throbbing beats, accompanied by ghostly entities and a modern-classical sound of her collaborators. Behind the monikers – Xuri / Parietal Eye – is the Copenhagen-based artist Susanne Benther Mouritsen. Affiliated with the label and community surrounding Janushoved, her latest release ‘Bedlam Of Salt’ is a manifestation of her earlier ambient work transforming into a more crystalized sound, which welcomes a fragmented narrative of psychedelic visions. Her guiding spirit is a kind one, inviting us to face the darkness and to find peace in the unknown. As a natural evolution of Susanne’s practice, her use of rave aesthetics and hazy hallucinatory sound imagery has mutated into a hard-hitting techno project. ‘Parietal Eye’ refers to the photo-sensory organ functioning as a third eye found on a range of lizard species. It is through this ancient reptile gateway, to the inner worlds that Parietal Eye seeks to conceive a metamorphosis of human raving, into a reptilian rumination. Xuri / Parietal Eye, has participated in a wide range of projects, performing live in Tokyo, Berlin, Antwerpen, and Paris, and continues to expand her field of practice into new frontiers investigating VR, sound design, and visual creation.
