3 D Metal Series

is a solo sound-movement performance series. Metal, the raw material and objects, function both as the instruments and collaborators to bridge body movements with sound making. This series openly works with sites, choreography, found objects and unplanned narratives, exploring at the intersection of new electro-acoustic music and contemporary dance.

Archived Performances

Tuō (2023)

Tanzhalle Wiesenburg, Berlin

This solo performance focuses on the specific movement vocabulary “tuō” which is the pinyin for the Chinese character “拖”, meaning the movement of pulling or dragging. It explores how the sound generated through this movement "拖” shapes between body, objects and space, suggesting the phenomenon beyond the character. The body plays a dual role, both physically and sonically, working with the objects as instruments together to compose the sound with the aid of choreography and a quadraphonic set up. Commissioned by Sommerfest.ival 2023 of Wiesenburg Berlin.
