ANA MARIA PAIXÃO
(Partner)
Ana Maria's role as a partner at Migration Studios mainly sees her working outside of the scope of music creation. Whilst Migration Studios is a recording facility, it's modern approach demands more than just creating records. Ana Maria oversees how the studio interacts with the visual arts world and works on large sculptural art exhibitions and ceramics.
Migration Studios is a new, independent, residential recording complex set in the heart of the Cotswolds.
Designed with sonic innovators in mind, to make future-facing work, whilst simultaneously pioneering a new approach between the production of music and the biggest challenge of our time: climate change.
The goal was to build an undeniably creative studio and to implement a new enterprise model to raise funds for environmental causes. Migration Studios supports The Great Elephant Migration, an environmental project which will see 100 life-size elephant sculptures migrate from East to West of the USA in 2024 and 2025, with an aim to raise $10m for wildlife conservation and human-wildlife coexistence.
Every artist and label that records at Migration Studios contributes to The Great Elephant Migration by helping to fund the restoration of the elephant sculptures, fund carbon sequestration through lantana conversion to biochar, and build further environmental infrastructure at the studios.
