Lamin Fofana is an artist and musician currently located in New York. His music contrasts the reality of our world with what’s beyond, and explores questions of movement, migration, alienation and belonging. Fofana’s overlapping interests in history and the present, and his practice of transmuting text into the affective medium of sound, manifests in multisensory live performances and installations featuring original music compositions, field recordings and archival material. His latest releases include Lamin Fofana And The Doudou Ndiaye Rose Family (Honest Jon’s), It’s Only a Matter of Acceleration Now (The Trilogy Tapes), Here Lies Universality (Avian Records), Unsettling Scores (Peak Oil), Ballad Air & Fire (Black Studies), and The Open Boat (an album trilogy). Recent exhibitions and performances by Fofana feature ALL TENETS INTERACTED & KINETICS REMAINED OCEANIC at Atonal, Berlin, Germany (2024),
