Pearla Pigao is an Oslo-based artist, musician, and craftsman. Drawing on her background in both music and textile art, her work explores the relationship between sound and material, drawing on the commonalities between weaving and musical composition to create digitally hand-woven textiles that create visual, tactile experiences of sound structures.
Her 2020 installation Wave Shaper at Soft Gallery Oslo was accompanied by a limited edition LP of the same name. The album art was designed by Norwegian graphic designer and letterpress printer Ane Thon Knutsen fittingly (“Do I hear LTypI?”) using Kinckq by The Pyte Foundry paired with the uber-classic Univers by Adrian Frutiger.
