《Body and Matter》
Science ／ Performance Workshop
Since her residency at European Organization for Nuclear Research (CERN) in 2016, Wen-Chi Su had been rethinking the relation between body and matter. We tend to treat the same matter as if we imagine ourselves in different world. In a variation of knowledge systems, artist understand the world through sensual experience, however, will scientific fact changes perception on his or her environment? This workshop invites student to YiLab’s creative lab. Using human as proportional scale, body as departure point, this workshop continues YiLab’s aesthetic form and context in new media and performing arts, tracing the front end of high technology questioning the matter of confronting the galaxy, through collection and application of theories and practices.
