Originally presented as a live listening experience, Akasha by Mervin Wong was born out of the initial encounter with solid volumes and fluid fabrics within the confines of BREATH, an installation of crafted pieces by Josh Tirados Suarez and Sarah Isabelle Tan.
A tender response when faced with its contrasting materiality, of hardness and softness, a motivation to capture that atmospheric layer that resonated within.
With the intent of expanding this verse, now comes a new reckoning, a presentation of a different kind, that is driven by performance and enhanced by object, texture, tone and place, a negotiation of space with sound, to engage through an embodied presence of being, here and now.
