My current research, Body as a Sonic Landscape (2025- ), investigates the body as terrain: a porous field shaped by memory, sensation, and social inscription. I approach the body not as representation, but as matter, mutable, responsive, and sonorous. I develop experiential practices grounded in meditation and embodied attention. To think with and through the body is to move beyond analysis toward direct perception.

When treated as earth or land, the body is manipulated and becomes a site of transformation, symbolically entering states such as burial, preservation, decay, or reconfiguration. These gestures unfold through queer subtexts that balance gravity with lightness and humor.

The action occurs on a body and on a canvas, where the raw materials are then left to rot in the form of an installation, and the sound accompanying the performance, or created live with contact microphones during the performance is replayed in the space, with the rotting materials. The installation is left as long as the institution permits, until the canvas is hung on the wall to dry. The space is cleaned and the sound installation with the canvas continues in the space.

When the exhibition is closed, the canvas is stretched onto a wooden frame and covered with glue or resin, permitting the traces of the body and the raw materials to be preserved. The body functions simultaneously as archive and instrument. Scars, tattoos, birthmarks, and residues operate as temporal markers, revealing layered personal and collective narratives.

By intensifying sensory awareness, my work invites participants to confront corporeality not only physically, but phenomenologically. Awareness of the body becomes awareness of the structures, social, historical, that shape it.
