let me leak for you
Interactive sound sculpture, textile installation
“let me leak for you,” made in collaboration with artist Minna Pöllänen, incorporates interactive sculptures, textiles, collage, and sound to create an environment that encourages tactile exploration and deep listening. The project gestures towards making
the cultural invisibility of bodily leakage visible, while subverting the associated embarrassment or shame into a productive and creative vehicle. The installation
uses both physical and conceptual manifestations of leakage, including textiles dyed with menstrual blood, urine PH strips collected over a six-month period, and a cushion with the outline of an ear leaking fluid. The sound utilizes ASMR (Autonomous Sensory
Meridian Response) and common linguistic cues taken from meditation videos that encourage peaceful and relaxed experiences.
