Noisy Flesh - A New Performance
🧎♀️2025
Living within a civilized society, making sound with our body is regarded as vulgar. The long-discarded auditory perception of body results in neglecting our most intimate flesh. To decentralize the dominance of verbal communication and liberalize the flesh from discipline, Noisy Flesh enhanced the performer’s body with textile extensions. These external textile flesh parts appeared as unwanted body parts like tumors and extra limbs. Being attached to and merging with the performer’s body, these unwanted parts, along with the body, are able to sound and be heard as the performer moves. Immersing in the roaring sound, shall we experience a new perception of flesh and body both visually and auditory?
Noisy Flesh is an ongoing project exploring somaesthetics, embodiment, new interface for musical expressions.
