Rays
Mirjam Sögner
Im Rahmen von "The 2019 Expo: A Showcase of Wahlberliner"
RAYS is an immersive experience, dedicated to the latent nervousness that increasingly permeates our existence. It strives to make visible what usually evades our senses: Wi-Fi signals, the electromagnetic fields of our smart phones, computers and power supply systems…
Working as an antenna, Mirjam Sögner lends her body to these immaterial waves that define the very core of our contemporary existence. Using no other device than her own organic material, she attempts to receive, detect, synchronize with and amplify these omnipresent signals. She becomes vibration. Vibration becomes body. Energy becomes solid. The line between transmitter and receiver blurs. Will the body eventually dissolve?
