Pan Daijing. Mute

In the organizer's words:

The live exhibition by artist and composer Pan Daijing (born 1991, Guiyang, China) comprises choreography, architectural intervention, sound and video. Her largest solo exhibition to date can be explored like a landscape of installative and performative elements. It invites the audience on a journey that extends across the entire Westgalerie and beyond the boundaries of the building.

Daijing's works develop a symbiotic relationship with the spaces in which they unfold. The installations created for the Haus der Kunst integrate material and architectural elements of the building, realign the view and open up previously unnoticed areas of the building. In a choreography that explores stillness and liveliness, a multi-member performance ensemble sets a process of transformation in motion at the beginning of the exhibition. The subsequent activations, which take place throughout the six-week duration of the exhibition, shift opposites such as inside and outside, or slow down the speed of time. The public is invited to immerse themselves and follow these traces or blur them.

In conjunction with the exhibition, a monograph on Pan Daijing will be published in collaboration with Tai Kwun Contemporary. With the support of Y.D.C..
