Joanna Mattrey is a NYC/Dublin based violist, composer, improviser, and multimedia artist, whose works blend installation, video, sound, and movement, and are often site-specific. Her compositions use multimedia elements to create visual and sonic environments that convey the themes of transformation, memory, politics, social connection, loss, and spiritual journeys. Working in free improvisation, new music, and classical music, she uses extended techniques, modern compositional approaches, and electronic alterations to challenge conventions in sound. Mattrey has performed with icons Tyshawn Sorey, Henry Threadgill, Marc Ribot, John Zorn, Billy Martin, Elliott Sharp, Miya Masaoka, and The Crash Ensemble, the International Contemporary Ensemble, and Irish National Opera.
