silent green Open Lab #6: Gregory Pearce + gega.fisk

silent green presents

Following a successful first edition in 2025, we are pleased to continue the silent green Open Lab—a platform for Berlin-based musicians and performance artists taking their first steps on stage.

Gregory Pearce
Gregory Pearce is an experimental musician from Aotearoa (New Zealand) who lives in Berlin. In his work, he combines improvisation, guitar, collage-like sampling techniques, and minimalist songwriting to create recordings and live performances that are both abstract and intimate. His latest release,*Blue List*, explores a process in which the raw qualities of acoustic sounds are captured and highlighted, only to be subsequently transformed into abstract compositions.

gega.fisk
In Eritrean, “gega.fisk” means “wrong,” and in Swedish, it means “fish.” The meaning of the name encapsulates the feeling of being an outsider and feeling out of place in one’s own environment. At the same time, Gega and Fisk are the names of the two artists who together share their personal experiences as an expression of their own reality—translated into music and socially critical poetry. Their work conveys a raw message of trauma, anger, and healing, and comments on the everyday challenges they face. Carried by bass-heavy sounds, emotional journeys unfold through unusual soundscapes and irregular rhythms.

Their debut album,*Bass Driven Poetry*, was independently released digitally in March.

fisk is a cross-genre DJ, event organizer, sound engineer, and artist who has been active in the club and bass music scene for nearly a decade. Starting with samples she records herself, she deconstructs, edits, and resamples her material to create multi-layered, bass-heavy sound constructions. Her practice moves between the exhibition space and the stage, combining activism with artistic expression, firmly rooted in DIY culture.

GEGA was washed ashore from the Red Sea and lost herself in a labyrinth of words and definitions. Her exploration of the feeling of “being wrong” leads to outbursts of rhythm, voice, and poetry. Through these forms of expression, GEGA finds self-determined ways of moving and positioning herself in our world.
