Special performance 'Like Dew and Like Lightning''Through the layering of water curtains and light, Aka Chang situates the body within a liminal space between the natural and the digital, prompting viewers to reconsider the relationship between existence and environment.' - Art curator, Chun-Chi WangThis special performance event invites you to explore light artist Aka Chang's Berlin debut solo exhibition, featuring three large-scale, site-specific installations: ‘Being Somewhere, Sometime’ (Site-specific), ‘RING: Kosmologia’ (Site-specific), and ‘Like Dew and Like Lightning’.| Opening Special PerformanceTwo groups of Taiwanese performing artists engage in a dialogue with Aka Chang’s three installations, exploring the relationship between humanity, nature, animism and technology.| PerformerInTW Studio https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events5/banners/385f2a20-3d43-11f1-946b-a12f2c65e4b3-rimg-w1110-h740-dcbfbbaa-gmir.jpg Hsieh Hsiao-Ting and Hsieh Hsiao-Wei are the co-founders and artistic directors of InTW Studio. Both artists have long been dedicated to contemporary dance, dance film, and immersive interdisciplinary creation. Their work explores the relationships among the body, space, technological media, and live perception, while developing performance forms that integrate environmental theatre, site-specific creation, and XR technologies.In addition to their creative practice, both of them have also been deeply involved in arts education and outreach for many years. Through school arts programs, they transform immersive experiences and object theatre methodologies into accessible artistic activities, expanding opportunities for participation in contemporary performing arts across different age groups and communities.Ty Chen https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events2/banners/38929630-3d43-11f1-946b-a12f2c65e4b3-rimg-w846-h740-dc1a1518-gmir.jpg "I knock on the door of the void, leaving it to the audience to answer."Ty Chen’s artistic practice is a profound exploration of attention and the interstices of consciousness. He views performance as a professional responsibility—capturing the gaze with precision within the darkness and constructing a bridge to trance-like states between the realms of revelry and silence. To him, flame and body are more than mere media; they are the rhythmic pulse that knocks on the door of the void.Rather than controlling the viewer's thoughts, he offers a "suggested frequency," guiding the temporary dissolution of boundaries between the self and the external world. In that wordless peace, where reality and illusion constantly shift, one finds the possibility of seeing light the moment they are freed from the shackles of thought. He speaks not of achievement or legacy, for art exists only in the resonance of the present. When the performance ends and silence returns to the self, he remains like a flower rising from the wild—unique, unpretentious, blooming and fading within the clarity of the moment.| Sound Design‘Being Somewhere, Sometime’ & ‘RING: Kosmologia’ by 韓承燁 @han_cheng_yeh‘Like Dew and Like Lightning’ by Mei-Fang Liau @FloatingSpectrumTransforming observations of natural soundscapes into organic, emotional musical experiences, Floating Spectrum expanding creative boundaries through innovative music technologies—both self-designed tools and experimental solutions from others.More information about the musician: https://floatingspectrum.com__________________________________________________________| Exhibition DescriptionAka Chang (Taiwan, 1979), a world-touring light artist, will present his first international solo exhibition in Berlin.‘Like dew and like lightning’, a new installation and the centrepiece of the exhibition, is inspired by the Buddhist thought of the ‘Diamond Sutra’. It renders a state of emptiness and non-attachment that evokes a sense of physis and physical, revealing the essence of beauty.The exhibition features three large-scale, site-specific laser light installations that integrate photosensitive materials, a water screen, and kinetic motors, translating artist’s unique narrative and Eastern philosophical perspective into the context of the modern technological era, and inviting the audience to rethink the ‘Being’, the essence of immersive experience in our time.| Exhibition informationLocation: Monopol Berlin, Provinzstraße 40-44, 13409 Berlin (Map)Opening | Special performance + Networking (Booking Required)Open Dates & Time (Exhibition Booking Link)April 18, 12:30-16:00April 21–26, 12:30 – 19:30The exhibition and performance events are supported by the National Culture and Arts Foundation, Monopol Berlin, LaserAnimation Sollinger. https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events4/banners/38cedbe0-3d43-11f1-9fd2-1932890f8494-rimg-w1200-h284-dcffffff-gmir.jpg WARNING: LASER IN USE Please avoid direct eye contact with laser beams.
