Fossick Project

FOSSICK PROJECT  is a duo formed by artist Cecilia Valagussa and singer-songwriter Marta Del Grandi. 
Their collaboration started in 2016 when the two artists were living in Belgium and led them to perform in Italy, Belgium, France, India, Nepal and Thailand. Initially conceived as a setup for improv performances, the concept evolved with storytelling as a central element: inspired by nature and the animal world, they decided to focus on the theme of endangered animals and to write their shows while visiting the habitat of the species they choose as protagonists. 
Their live act consists of Cecilia’s analog animation on the overhead projector, on which she manually moves puppets drawn on scraps of colored film sheets and other materials such as sand, water and small objects. Marta writes songs and instrumental pieces that combine  singing with melodies, electronic sounds and samples; she performs with vocals, guitar, keys and electronics.
