Reflecting on her time at the studio, Zara notes that Max and Yulia have cultivated a meditative space. Zara feels that the residency provided her with the opportunity to focus intensely on her work: “When I was offered a residency at Studio Richter Mahr, I was so excited to finally have the resources to create my album. Having a full week to work on something so deeply personal undisturbed was vital for my process.”
This project draws on Zara’s diverse experiences and is inspired by her Polish-Jamaican heritage, close relationships, and a love for both rave culture and classical music. The album reflects Zara’s unique artistic vision in a deeply personal way.
