Intimate Strangers
Sara Serpa, Sofía Rei, Aubrey Johnson – voice
Emmanuel Iduma – spoken word
Leo Genovese- piano
Qasim Naqvi – modular synth
A collaboration between Portuguese vocalist-composer Sara Serpa and Nigerian writer Emmanuel Iduma, drawing inspiration from Iduma’s latest book, A Stranger’s Pose, a unique blend of travelogue, musings and poetry, with a foreword by Teju Cole. In a combination of music, text, image and field recordings collected by Iduma during his travels, Intimate Strangers explores such themes as of movement, home, grief, absence and desire in what Iduma calls “an atlas of a borderless world”.
