Brooklyn-based interdisciplinary artist isabel crespo pardo (they / them) announces their solo electroacoustic debut tanto te he querido (Eng: so much i’ve loved you), under new moniker, iiisa. Merging field recordings, poemsongs, and familial voices from their home in Costa Rica, they build memory portals for the kindling of transformation.

Drawing from Latin American histories, Black American art, and queer and trans thought, iiisa prioritizes vulnerability, interconnection, and an openness to change. The resulting album tanto te he querido is largely crafted with composted fragments of past compositions and field recordings gathered by iiisa over the past decade.
