Flo­ra Yin-Wong is an exper­i­men­tal artist and writer from Lon­don whose work incor­po­rates field record­ings and ear­ly instru­ments such as singing bowls, yangqin and kemence, processed through ped­als, Max/MSP, as well as text-based sto­ry­telling and abstrac­tion. She cites ear­ly musi­cal influ­ences from the city’s diverse sub-cul­tures from UK garage to under­ground DIY bands, hav­ing grown up on coun­cil estates in Cam­den, to under­age club­bing in Soho and Mayfair.

In Octo­ber 2020, her debut album was released on Mod­ern Love records as a dou­ble LP vinyl. Pri­or to that, she released on Berlin label PAN on the ambi­ent “mono no aware” com­pi­la­tion which she worked on con­cep­tu­al­iz­ing. Her debut EP “City God” was a tape on New York imprint PTP, was inspired by the Daoist tra­di­tion of tute­lary deities and the afterlife.

She has per­formed at insti­tu­tions and gal­leries like MACRO Roma, Volks­bühne The­atre Berlin, Palais de Tokyo, V&A Muse­um, Fon­da­tion Beyel­er Basel, Som­er­set House, Tri­en­nale Milano, King’s Place, The Jazz Cafe, and Cafe OTO Lon­don, as well as clubs like Berghain, Print­works Lon­don, Razzmatazz Barcelona, SOTO and Metro in Kyoto, and on Fes­ti­vals like Aton­al and 3HD Fes­ti­vals in Berlin, Semi­breve Por­tu­gal, FIBER Fes­ti­val Ams­ter­dam, Wiener Fest­wochen in Vien­na and MUTEK Peru.

This year she launched her record label Doyenne feat. artists like Susu Laroche, Lisa Lerken­feldt, Mar­ty­na Bas­ta, and YL Hooi. Her sec­ond album is due this Sep­tem­ber on Mod­ern Love, and her mul­ti-chan­nel com­po­si­tion for Paris institute’s INA GRM will be released as a split EP next year fol­low­ing a res­i­den­cy for their icon­ic 48-chan­nel dif­fu­sion sys­tem. She is cur­rent­ly work­ing on remix­es for Ale Hop on Nyege Nyege Tapes, for the duo Ani­mistic Beliefs and Tokyo pro­duc­er Ena.

Her first book “Litur­gy” was released in July 2021 on New York’s Pri­ma­ry Infor­ma­tion — explor­ing abstract fic­tion and non-fic­tion, inter­link­ing themes like reli­gion, mod­ern mythol­o­gy, para­dox­es, and delusions.
