sonic energetics artist statement

Have you ever felt sonic energy caress you, vibrating within — deeper than touch?

“Somewhere between hearing and being touched, SONIC ENERGETICS unfolds through the body. The movement of vibration across skin and tissue reaches the intimate interiors that “listen” beneath; it draws the sensory and mechanical rhythms of the organism into one shared plane of perception.

Low-frequency sound travels through air and physical structures. It allows muscular tone to modulate in response to sonic waves — a sequence of micro contractions and releases that glide through fascia and muscular chains. These undulations move slowly, continuously recalibrating posture and the body’s feeling of gravity.

SONIC ENERGETICS is an embodied practice involving low-frequency sound, light, and non-directive facilitation. Sound and light mingle in the air, shaping waves of pressure and light. Perception folds space and time into one continuous medium — proximity stretches; duration lengthens. Attention drifts inside the field.

Here, external energy meets internal sensation. The same wave that brushes the surface courses through spine and breath, softening the distinction between what touches and what is touched. Breath, tone, and circulation merge into a continuous rhythm. Tension and release move through the body’s tissues. Within this space, the threshold between inner and outer perception begins to loosen — it starts to blur. The line between what surrounds and what is contained softens and opens you for a new social experience of coherence.

Drawing from the Latin spiritus — breath, soul, air — sound moves as a physical force between bodies and space. In this exchange, sound becomes a kind ofrespiration — not symbolic but physical — merging sensing and being into one continuous act.

When we speak of energetic fields, we refer to the inner landscapes of the body — not symbolic energy or mystical aura. Still, the tangible, felt states of breath, muscle tone, emotional frequency, and nervous system responsiveness. Sound does not direct these states; it articulates the conditions for sensing them, allowing them to surface, to be noticed, to come into relation. That is what SONIC ENERGETICS is about. What emerges is not interpretation, but presence — a state of attunement in which sensing and being coincide. SONIC ENERGETICS is an intentional space for energetic relationality.”
