Her first inspiration was Charlotte Bienaimé's ‘Un podcast à soi’, which discusses fundament- tal questions of gender and feminism. "More often than not in history, 'Anonymous' was a woman" - this sentence by Virginia Woolf, epigraph to the famous radio podcast, has found an echo in Julie Campiche. Giving a voice to women, but in a distinct way: this is the common thread running through the album. Rather than a feminist manifesto, UNSPOKEN seeks to celebrate feminine strength, nourished by commitment and openness. She addresses the fragile balance of women in shadow and light of society.
“Female strength is what makes the world go round. 80% of household chores are done by women for free and anonymously. I want to celebrate exceptional women, but also give a place to this everyday strength”. Among the figures who inspire her and whose voices and actions she evokes, are the Swiss artist and prostitute Grisélidis Réal, or Las Patronas, the Mexican guardian angels who throw food and water to those who have decided to migrate and illegally board freight trains bound for the USA.
