Tuning

Elisabeth Kihlström

June 2025

How do architectural and corporeal boundaries intersect? Elisabeth Kihlström works with a group of performers to activate the gallery space, literally, by attaching taut metal strings to the architecture and turning it into a resonance chamber. Through measured movement and physical tension, the performers' bodies generate and modulate sound, creating a live composition shaped by strain, gesture, and resistance. The piece reveals the hidden sonic environment of the built structure. It is a choreography of negotiation, tension, and collision between flesh, force, and form.
