about

For this series #06, we feature artists Orieta Chrem and Rawa who together synchronize the vocal richness of Shipibo Icaro and the vibrational spheres of sound healing instruments. Orieta is a versatile musician, DJ, producer and vibrational therapist who through the use of tuning forks, gongs, and crystal sound bowls has teamed together with long time friend Rawa; a Shipibo-Konibo Onaya and keeper of ancestral knowledge, to create a unique soundscape for our series.

Over the years, Chrem and Rawa would collaborate together in meditative sonic sessions that involved the use of quartz bowls, tuning forks, the gong and electronic synthesizers, along with Rawa's magical Icaros. These live improvisations allowed them and the listener(s) to reach very deep states of meditation and transformation.

In the Shipibo-Konibo tradition, the Icaros are chants interpreted by the elders and wise ones of the community that, complemented with the properties of Amazonian plants, act in favor of the integral healing of the person. The Icaros are connected to the collective consciousness of the Shipibo-Konibo world where special designs called Kene are acquired by visions during shamanic sessions through the ritual use of master plants or in the xinan (thoughts) of the women who then materialize them onto textiles, ceramics, and the body. These designs along with the Icaros represent an entire communication system with plant spirits and the cosmic order, passing from the invisible to the visible world.

And because the Icaros have the power to gain access to the subconscious in such a way that when combined with the harmonics of quartz bowls and the binaural beats of frequency tuned forks, the brain begins to shift into a different state of consciousness; of non-linear time and space. This intuitive partnership between Chrem and Rawa offers an aesthetic healing journey guided by the power of sound.
