vōx, the project of Los Angeles-based artist Sarah Winters, occupies a unique space in the contemporary art-pop landscape. Her sound is defined by a rigorous minimalism that emphasizes vocal texture and emotional transparency.
Emerging in the mid-2010s, her early collaborations with Dylan Brady hinted at a more aggressive electronic edge, but her solo evolution has leaned into a 'sacred-pop' aesthetic. This transition was marked by the 2017 release of 'I Was Born,' a track that signaled a creative rebirth and a shift toward more melancholic, spiritual themes. Critically, she is noted for her visual identity, which often involves elaborate veils and sculptural fashion, mirroring the themes of protection and exposure found in her lyrics. Her work sits at the intersection of FKA twigs' avant-pop and the choral-influenced minimalism of Julianna Barwick. The consensus among critics is that vōx is a master of the 'slow-burn,' using her voice as a primary instrument to build tension and release in a way that feels both modern and timeless.
