Shasha Chen: In a Thin and Loud Skin (2026)

14.11.2026 / 21:30 – 23:30
With Shasha Chen

for sound, multimedia and live performance

For the 2026 edition of Klangwerkstatt Berlin, composer, performer, and multimedia artist Shasha Chen (Fellow 2026) developed a multilayered project combining live music, electronics, performance, ritual movement, and multimedia elements. These forms of expression are brought together through Chen’s situational practice of conceptual music theater. The work understands identity as a dynamic space of migration, in which the body is at once a medium, a metaphor, and a site of mythic and processes of negotiation. In doing so, it opens perspectives on resistance, healing, connection, and reinvention within a present shaped by fragmentation and violence.
