Sonic Curiosities Collective was formed in 2019 by a small group of artists: Diane Barbé, Kayla Elrod, Aleks Filipiak, Lottie Sebes, and Kim Wichera. Together we aim to grow, celebrate, and support the sound-art community during our events. We invite makers, performers, and artists to share ideas and showcase work in a space that challenges the dominance of ‘white cube’ exhibition contexts.

​

Our events are hosted at Villa Kuriousium-- a ramshackle underground venue and community space in the middle of a sprawling community garden in Berlin Friedrichshain. Its spaces are filled with material curiosities, from taxidermy animals to aged musical instruments, and jars of preserved biological oddities.
