Sayaka Botanic is a Japanese experimental musician and visual artist. Since 2012, she has been one half of group A, an industrial avant-garde duo that performed at Berlin Atonal, CTM Festival, Roskilde Festival, Donaufestival, Steirischer Herbst, Le Guess Who?, Berghain, and Supersonic Festival, sharing stages with artists such as Keiji Haino, and Acid Mother Temple. As a solo artist, Botanic deconstructs the violin through guitar pedals, samplers, and magnetic tape, fusing harsh noise and beat structures with raw improvisation and vigorous physicality. Her 2025 album Nonexistent Landscape (Quanta Records, Paris) engages with Marc Augé’s non-places and Mark Fisher’s concept of the eerie, conjuring imaginary sonic landscapes where the origin of each sound remains deliberately elusive.
