Mute
Survey exhibition commissioned by Haus der Kunst, Munich. On view March to April 2024.
Occupying over 18 rooms of Haus der Kunst, Mute invites the audience on a journey that encompasses architectural elements and unregistered spaces, manifesting as an ever-evolving environment. Pan Daijing‘s work is dedicated to process: works from the last ten years are reinterpreted and supplemented by new productions.
The works develop a symbiotic relationship with the spaces in which they unfold. The exhibition created for Haus der Kunst encompasses architectural intervention, sound, video, sculpture, light and choreography rerouting the gaze and opening up unseen spaces.
The durational performances throughout the six weeks of the exhibition aim to distort oppositions, such as the perception of inside and outside, or slow down the velocity of time. There is a sense of continual change, leaving the with a feeling that something profound has happened, even if its form remains unclear.
The exhibition was activated and closed by performances starring Chihiro Araki, Camilla Brogaard, Kelvin Kilonzo, Amie Jammeh, Leah Katz, Chan Wai Lok, Cary Shiu, and Pan Daijing. Daily activations were performed by Amie Jammeh, Chihiro Araki and Wai Lok Chan.
