Xavier Cha "VoiceDoor"
Taxter & Spengemann
This event has ended.
New York based artist Xavier Cha presents VoiceDoor (2008) a performance and video piece on view in the upstairs gallery.
Last year Cha was an artist in residence at the Cité des Arts, as part of the Lower Manhattan Cultural Council’s Paris residency. Living down the hall from Cha was an opera singer, who dutifully practiced her scales every day, projecting her nimble vocal chords throughout the halls of the dormitory. Here Cha recreates this phenomenon from within the closed confines of the upstairs gallery’s office. A frosted glass door is presented to visitors opposite a video projection of a mysterious underground cave. The performer’s image flickers in shadow behind the door, but her voice sculpts and defines her presence via absence to a hauntingly psychological affect
