I am Luca Marcia, an Italian composer, musician, and performer working across music for visual media, readings, and theatre productions. My main instruments are voice, guitar, electronics, and the Sardinian language, which together shape a distinctive and recognizable sonic identity. With a background in geology and agriculture, I develop imaginative soundscapes that merge ancestral timbres with contemporary and dramatic atmospheres. My artistic research engages with water as a geological, social, and symbolic agent, and unfolds through live performance, documentary, dance, and contemporary theatre.
