What does my body say to your body? What does your skin hear? What do my movements say to your muscles? What does my breath say to your lungs?

While at Steim we focused on recording the breath of a movement artist (Emily Sweeney) and a vocalist (Audrey Chen) as part of an ongoing project titled “Breathscape.” We have recorded breath under different conditions and in various locations and wanted to continue this research at Steim. While in the recording studio, Chen and Sweeney responded to the sounds of one another breathing, as well as recordings of their own breathing played back to them.
