13.03.2019 | Davide Tidoni – All Bodies End In Silence | Avatar Centre (Qc)

Avatar and Méduse are good for a screening session of recent work by the Italian artist Davide Tidoni (Pépinières MAP Meduse 2019 Laureat) this Wednesday, March 13 at 13h. In partnership with the program of European Pepinieres of Creation, the Council of arts and letters of Quebec and the City of Quebec, this last one is in residence of creation since January 14th in Méduse and Avatar.

All Bodies End in Silence (2018) presents various performative actions performed using microphones. These actions question the materiality of sound devices by exploring their bodily aspect. These actions are developed directly in connection with an affirmative dramaturgy, each of which is metaphorically concluded by the death of the microphone or the speakers from which the sound emanates.

Davide Tidoni is an artist and researcher interested in the relational dimension of listening and the physical experience of sound. His research is in the form of performances, sound recordings, video documentation and listening workshop. He recently published a sound ethnography of the BRESCIA 1911 group (The Sound of Normalization, SARU Oxford Brookes University, 2018).
