Performance Premiere

The Visible Breath
of Frequency

An immersive performance-installation extending the Sounding Canvas series into choreographic territory.

Transforming the original wall-mounted format into suspended sensory curtains and an interactive floor, the work invites the dancer into a continuous, live dialogue with the artwork.

The piece explores the evolving relationship between movement, sound, and visual abstraction. Framed by interactive textile panels, each gesture, whether a gentle graze or a grounded step, activates a sonic response.

This reciprocal exchange challenges traditional hierarchies between performer and scenography. The installation is not a backdrop, but a co-performer, an active system that listens, answers, and evolves.

The visual language draws on Dora Motèque’s research in Persian calligraphy and sensory perception. Minimal in form, the painted surfaces function as spatial scores, guiding movement and marking rhythm within the immersive environment.
