SHOW REEL
Singer-songwriter, multi-instrumentalist and creator of various projects, Yohna Saïdé is a passionate artist who builds connections and creates sonic identities.
Trained violinist, she studied at the conservatories of Lille and Tours, and at Jazz à Tours , where she studied violin, jazz, classical music, and Irish music. Over the years, she taught herself singing, guitar, mandolin, and piano. She also studied writing, composition, and arrangement, and later, film music at Jazz à Tours.
Coming from a family full of musicians, and of mixed heritage from Madagascar, Lebanon and Uruguay, Yohna is committed to the idea that art should be an opening to the world and a constant dialogue between content and form.
Yohna played in various musical projects with very eclectic styles: Solomon Pico (psychedelic rock), Ghillie's & Letters To Erin (Irish music and dance), Jungle Head (folk and baroque music), Stomp it Up (1930s Swing), Boyle (Old Time Music), L'Héritage Goldman (Variety & Pop) etc.
Artistic Journey
Un film organique autour de la mémoire : autant de couleurs pour autant de souvenirs entremêlés. Un paysage croisé, tout en relief, entre stop motion et images d’archives, samples, échantillons et glitchs. « Bagage » arpente les sentiers d’une mémoire, dans un espace-temps technicolor où tout se superpose : le passé défilant à la fenêtre.
Avec Bagage, j'ai pensé la musique comme autant de petites pièces de puzzle audio à découper, modeler, inverser, et ce afin de répondre à la forme même du film, mêlant images d'archives et stop-motion.
