Naima Nefertari (aka Karlsson) is an interdisciplinary artist, musician and composer based in London. Her practice interweaves sonic and visual forms led by interests in repetition, improvisation, and relationships between language, image, symbol and sound. Naima’s main instrument is the piano, as well as percussion, vibraphone, and electric organ. Improvisation is at the core of the artist’s musical process, combined with minimalist uses of tone and an inherently organic approach to playing.
Cõvco is a London-based Congolese polymath artist whose practice spans music, performance, poetry, and curation. Known for her experimental soundscapes and emotionally raw performances, she creates immersive experiences that move between club spaces, ritual, and live art. Her sonic work ranges from live performance to scoring, often weaving voice, movement, and texture into boundary-pushing compositions. She is the founder of Infinite FXX.
