TRIUMPH-ADLER
Den experimentella ljudkonsttrion Triumph-Adler bygger upp suggestiva ljudlandskap i en unik narrativ ljudbild, på samma gång minimalistiskt & episkt bombastiskt. Röstkonstnären Zofia Åsenlöfs röst rör sig genom ljudlandskapen och lotsar lyssnaren framåt ackompanjerad av Helena Juréen på skrivmaskin och Julia Zajac på dragspel.

Den dynamiska trion bildades 2010 i Malmö av ljud- och bildkonstnär Helena Juréen, röstkonstnär & musiker Zofia Åsenlöf & konstnär/designer Julia Zajac.

Sommaren 2011 skapade bandet en unik komposition till bandmedlemmen Julia Zajacs designkoncept dfp.
Verket framfördes live till en modeperformance under Malmöfestivalen 2011.
