Your Tongue is Better Than My Cocoon: Performing the Void

This project introduces sound poetry through a physical publication and a live performance, investigating the dynamic between the self as multiple and the self as a unified whole. It further explores the relationship between reading, listening, writing, and spoken word, using visual, oral, and sonic elements. The convergence of various realities and fictions underscores an infinite connection and honesty between different personas.
This project explores the fragmented and non-linear aspects of archival material and personal experiences. The aim is to convey this through an artistic practice that combines text and tactile elements, forming an imaginary archive and multiple personas.
The installation features four hanging cubes, inviting the audience to navigate the space and engage with written language on suspended white cubes. Drawing inspiration from archives like the Her Noise Archive, it presents interpretations from the stories that collections can inform.
