Artist’s statement

There are some questions that I am concerned with in my artistic making. Mainly, how to share in a visual way my experience as Deaf, to convey what it is like to be a deaf person. Together with TWIXTlab we sought to make a musical composition with the children, which is adapted to the unique hearing of the Deaf and hard-of-hearing teenagers we are working with. As much as every person is different and unique, so is their hearing. Even more so, for people who perceive sound neither with the same volume nor the same frequencies. So the purpose of the project is to make, through different musical experiments and games, a musical composition, so that the children will contribute to the music making and the musical experience, and eventually to enjoy a piece of music together, without obstacles and interruptions, either in tactile, aural or visual modalities.
