In Residence With is a podcast series that delves into the creative processes of sound artists during their residencies at Sound Art Lab in Struer, Denmark. Each episode offers an intimate glimpse into the artists’ explorations, experiments, and reflections as they develop new work.

During her residency at Sound Art Lab, Portuguese multimedia artist Júlia Lema Barros is developing Mons Tro—an immersive audiovisual installation inspired by the Danish folklore figure Nøkken. In myth, Nøkken lures people to their deaths with music; in Júlia’s piece, it’s the seductive pull of natural sounds—wind, water, and trees—that slowly draws the listener in.
Drawing from memory, mythology, and the sonic textures of Struer’s shoreline, Júlia collects underwater recordings, wind in bottles, and the subtle acoustics of the coast to create a hypnotic world of sound—one that gently pulls the listener under, blurring the line between reality and imagination.
