about

To escape the digital sensory overload of modern day life’s digital behaviour, artist and composer Shayu has been keeping a visual diary based on analogue drawings for over 12 years. For the work of art «Once I was dancing in the dark and what was left is a drawing» the visual diary has now been translated into the digital realm by video artist Joerg Hurschler and is accompanied by an auditive composition by Shayu.
The keeping of a visual diary consisting of over 1’000 of drawings, allows Shayu to process daily impressions and store them in mechanical memory. The artist associates places that have shaped her, people she met, visual and auditory stimuli as well as the appurtenant feelings.
The result is shown as a 2.1 installation in the Aktionshalle of Rote Fabrik..
To launch the release, Shayu has invited friends from Switzerland and England to perform their own musical interpretation of the installation.
