I hope this summer brings you plenty of slow dancing in forests
improvisation on zero
When I chose the name OPIA, I wanted it to reflect on the very intimate, vulnerable relationships of creative collaboration. It refers to the ambiguous intensity of looking someone directly in the eyes – described brilliantly in The Dictionary of Obscure Sorrows.
Our community has grown so much in these past couple of days and I cannot wait to see what we do together. Join the Discord via my link in bio (pre-sale for our launch event in Berlin has started for members) – and follow @opiacommunity
Today, @opiacommunity is born.
In 2019 I hosted the first and only OPIA Festival at the Southbank Centre in London. We had plans for more but the pandemic put a pin in it. I am particularly excited to see it re-emerge today as OPIA Community – A travelling festival, record label and community hub.
In an age of social disconnect and streaming algorithms I’ve felt an ever growing need to create a place for people to meet, to talk and create, to inspire and be inspired. My hope is that OPIA can host an environment where creativity thrives through real life experiences and connections.
To mark this new beginning, I’ve gathered a few special friends to join me for a celebration of this new and revitalised OPIA. Join us at @silent.green in Berlin on October 18 where I’ll play an intimate, one-off improvisational show with friends, along with performances by @j0fridur and @sofipaezmusic.
• Very limited capacity
• Pre-sale starts July 28 (exclusively via my newsletter and the OPIA Discord server)
• General on-sale starts July 31

Looking forward to sharing this new chapter with you all ❤️
