Inspired by Korean shamanistic practices in which drums are used to summon spirits, artist Jae Pil Eun employs the sonic to imagine and capture the spirit of natural elements–such as wind and thunder–the human body, as well as that of inanimate objects, as a way to question the duality between nature and culture.

Forming a bridge between his installation Blue Moon and his upcoming exhibition Red Celebration, Jae Pil Eun will host the workshop Body Sound, inviting the audience to experiment with the sonic themselves–using drums, their own bodies, (contact) microphones, and vibration speakers.

Following a brief introduction to Jae Pil Eun’s practice and Korean shamanistic music, participants will be guided in recording and amplifying sound, as well as in giving sound to inaudible things and phenomena.

The workshop is free of charge and requires no prior experience with audio, but we kindly ask you to confirm your attendance by emailing office@vleeshal.nl
