“The Chamber it Comes From” – Performance

… If you stand in it for long enough, you hear your bones make a grinding noise. No longer able to follow an audible trail, the withdrawal of reverberation sabotages your spatial awareness.

The chamber it comes from is a working process aimed towards the physical embodiment of deep listening and reverberation. The body exists as a container and chamber for residual sound to occur, while also being placed in an audio environment for play and exploration. Surrounding oneself in the overwhelm and being submerged into this live, reactive, and resonant world, all elements introduced into this chamber space serve a body trying to attune and orient itself.

“Call and Response” - Installation

Mylar sewn onto canvas, performance, video projection.

Call and Response is an immersive installation exploring the interaction of movement, visual art and projection through refraction and reflection. The work begins from a question: How can the act of deep listening be translated into visual mediums?

The projected movement of my body serves as a call, while the mylar and the surrounding environment of moving light provide a visual response. The refractive and reflective qualities of the mylar create a textured surface that interacts with light and movement, and the crinkled mylar backdrop acts as a conduit, catching and bouncing the light from the projection of the dance performance. Together, this dance of both light and motion transforms the space into an exchange told through movement, refraction, and reflection.
