Twenty-Six: Beyond the Sound of Night —  An Experimental Project's Cover

Temporarily unlisted

Twenty-Six: Beyond the Sound of Night is an exhibition work that combines sound and body installations to explore the boundaries of sound and body in different city nights, and presents them in outdoor spaces in the form of soundscape theatre.

This work originated from the night of insomnia after the nationwide Level 3 alert for Covid-19. Based on the research and application of soundscape and solo dance at night, it integrates her daily observations and life journey, focusing on the theme of personal private space, especially those unheard sounds and those unseen bodies that exist during the period of sleep. The design of the exhibition uses theatre elements to reintroduce sound and body into performance, and creates a sense of empathy with others through her own feelings. Participants are allowed to freely roam the exhibition space, reflecting the borderless state of the night. In the summer of May 2023, they will walk together to the next city to meet the next night.

This working records thesis consists of five chapters. The first three chapters focus on the motivation of creation, the review of theoretical research, and the preparation for the conceptual design of exhibition works; Chapter 4 is the production process of practical creation project and exhibition; Chapter 5 reflects and reviews the feedback from participants after the exhibition, and discusses the shortcomings and explores the potential for future development of this work.
