I find inspiration in the discomfort of integrating sound into the public sphere, particularly in giving voice to the silenced and navigating self-censorship. This ever-present absence, though, often exposes vulnerabilities.
To address this unease, my work exploits silent words and suppressed elements through a blend of performance and presentation, treating each as interchangeable. The fusion of diverse narratives, including composed recordings, self-written literary pieces, and academic text, aims to manipulate and traverse the spaces we inhabit—a realm marked by ambiguity and ignorance that needs filling to replace the prevailing silences. The work unfolds through dialectic methods.
The interplay between printed text and spoken word oscillates between truths and disingenuous desires, resulting in the amplification and non-amplification of fragmented narratives.
Silent moments are typically filled with vocabulary, utterances, colloquial discourses, and actions—small talk facilitating the transition between public and private interactions. Yet, this creates a challenging space to navigate. When does the confessional transform into the audible and visible, and how can this be deemed acceptable?
This work explores the expanded narrative field, traversing the boundaries of public and private spaces. Linear and non-linear formations are perceived through both visible and audible language and text, fostering new discourses.
By sculpting sound, structuring narratives, and performing the other, my work addresses contemporary issues, creating fragmented passages between our surroundings and the identities we project. This form of communication articulates absence, presence, identity, and the body, emphasising the divisions between communal and confessional spaces.
