Sika

Sika is a sound artist based in New Zealand, dedicated to creating music and paintings that enhance our spiritual and human relationship with nature.
He has toured internationally since 1993, offering sound journeys and concerts.
The didgeridoo forms an important foundation for his music, however he also uses drums, native flutes, voice and a broad selection of both traditional and historical Maori instruments.
Giving voice to wood, skin, bone, stone and shell, his work reflects a lifetime of listening to the rhythms of nature. Other sources of sound such as water, fire, trees, animals and wind are used with the ultimate intention to build soundscapes that enable us to leave time
After years of gathering and making instruments, Sika has recorded ten solo albums.
As a collection these projects tell the story of a man who has followed his yearning to create a life grown from the roots of the past, but sowing the seeds of the future.
