Claudia Ferretti Isonde
I am Claudia Ferretti Isonde, musician, sensorialist, soundartist and songwriter - Claudia Is On The Sofa. I explore soundscapes to describe the world by sounds. I stimulate myself and others who listen to my work and who collaborate with me on my artistic works, project and studies to listen, because I am deeply convinced that this attention toward perception increases the possibility of meeting the beauty of the world, thus recognizing it, spreading it and protecting it.
