Claire Latxague
Claire Latxague is a multi-talented individual who navigates between comic books and sound creation. After working as a researcher specializing in Latin America and as an editor, she trained in radio with Phonurgia Nova and the Transmission collective. Her first documentaries focus on family memory. In Le carnet russe (Arte radio), she reflects on a small agenda written in Cyrillic that belonged to her mother. In Germaine ou la retenue, she investigates the circulation of the unspoken within a family in the Basque Country. Today, she is dedicated to several projects, including the documentary Mémoires de Buchenwald, initiated during an author residency in the Île-de-France region, as well as two co-written fiction projects: L’Abécédaire sonore and Le Taxi. In 2019, she received the Brouillon d'un rêve sonore grant from Scam, as well as a Phonurgia nova awards / Groupe Musiques Vivantes de Lyon residency in 2020. Photo credit : Mona Clavel
