Following her creative residency at Transcultures, Joyul, a Korean sound artist and explorer, presents a performance centered around the daxophone (an invention by German musician Hans Reichel—a wooden tongue mounted on a tripod with contact microphones, played with a bow and a dax, a curved piece of wood, one side of which is fretted) in a new, vibrant environment aimed at discovering a fresh sonic flow.
For the concert in the convent chapel, she will explore both the unique characteristics of the daxophone and the acoustic qualities of this historic space.
Joyul (Kr)
A young musician and performance artist based in Seoul, already recognized internationally, who has just completed a European tour culminating in this residency in Saint-Ghislain. In her exploratory work, both demanding and subtle, she combines new instruments to produce electro-organic sounds, also utilizing her singing voice with a certain softness that contributes to atmospheres as dreamlike as they are mysterious.
In her performances, she explores the physicality of electronic music performance, becoming a body that bridges the human and animal realms, a generator of sounds that are at times ethereal and at other times earthy, enhanced by various sonic objects and effect pedals. She processes live elements such as spoken words, sensory inputs, field recordings gathered during her journey, and synthesized textures, weaving them together intricately.
