Cyborg Lullaby from Gwen Sainte-Rose

« Est-ce que vous avez des enfants ? »
A cette question qui paraît anodine, celles qui ne sont pas mères peuvent apporter, chacune, une réponse et une histoire très différentes.
Gwen y répond ici à sa façon, dans ce premier geste sonore qui raconte son histoire et son rapport à la non-maternité. D’autres créations sur cette question suivront, présentant les univers singuliers de chacune autour du projet : « Celles qui ne sont pas mères ».

    (1st part of upcoming “Those who are not mothers”)

“Do you have children?”
To this seemingly innocuous question, those who are not mothers can each give a very different answer and tell a very different story.
Gwen responds in their own way, in this first sound piece that tells their story and their relationship with non-motherhood.

It’s also about what they feel on a sensory level. How they live in a binary and heterosexual system. What is “natural” or not And how they find their way in there.
Other creations on this question will follow, presenting each person’s unique universe on this theme.



Gwen Sainte-Rose is a musician, composer and sound artist. Their creations are always guided by sensitive listening.

For cello and loopstation, they composed “Collines – Racines”, two soundscapes inspired by the Forêt de Soignes and the Gaume region in South Belgium.

They produced the radio documentary “Ne pleure pas !” (Don’t cry!), about child abuse.
Now they are also exploring links between videos they made with a microscope camera, sound and music, as in « Garden ».
