Riccardo La Foresta is a sound artist, drummer and composer from Modena, Italy whose artistic production has revealed a variety of sound-related practices. Since 2015, he has been dedicated to developing the drummophone, an aerophone instrument that creates acoustic drones, ancestral melodies and complex beats using airflow (both breath and compressed air) to sound drum skins. At the same time, he creates site-specific performances, sound sculptures and installations without limiting his work to percussive-based approaches.
