Invoking Echoic and Physical Memories

Exchange with Audrey Chen

Sold out

I am a second generation Taiwanese-Chinese American living in Berlin, and a mother of a biracial/bicultural son. My practice has dealt with and continues to explore the displacement of story and history due to the migration and integration processes, loss and adoption of language, untold stories, how the past can be accessed and traced through inherited and lived experience and the importance of bringing this kind of sounding reflection and communication into our future generations.  

I activate my instruments, invoking a kind of joint resonant body/space transforming itself in a feedback loop of imagination, touch, vibration, sound and aural sensation. My practice is deeply intertwined with this act of invocation, calling upon my physical body to remember beyond the limitations of my own memory, beyond my lifetime into generations past, simultaneously echoing into the present and forwards.
