Carmina Escobar is a Los Angeles-based extreme vocalist, improviser, performer, and sound and intermedia artist whose work explores the boundaries of voice and sound to investigate emotions, politics, alienation, and human connection. Through performances, installations, and video works, she challenges conventions of musicality, gender, queerness, race, language, and communication. As an immigrant, her practice often examines suspended states between worlds, politics, and borders. Her work has been presented internationally and supported by prestigious residencies and awards, including recognition for sound innovation and experimental art. She remains focused on creating thoughtful and boundary-pushing work while staying rooted in the exploratory and collaborative nature of her practice.
