Documented performance of the Irreversible painting. Bodyscapes painting was created using a hacked stethoscope microphone to my heart area and a microphone for breathing to listen to the sound of the autonomous body. I used the sound to guide my movement, completely allowing the body in its state of being to speak for itself.

With hacked stethoscope microphones attached to her body during live performances, Jonna lets the sounds direct her body to produce large and dynamic canvases of colour. Members of the audience are invited to listen to the sounds through headphones and be connected to the artist in her process. bowarts.org/event/lab-lates-exhibition-opening-bodyscapes-gaby-jonna/ Solo

2022Pliable Tools Book Good Press Glasgow, United Kingdom goodpress.co.uk/ PLIABLE TOOLS takes the construction site as its beginning. This publications asks, how can the construction site function as a metaphor for the building up and breaking down of text / image? Of the breaking and remaking of the relationship between the two? Can it be a beginning for the constructing/deconstructing of form? The hierarchy of word and image? the swing of a pulley weight? the dddddrrrrringggg of a drill? Words, pixels, paragraphs, brush strokes are our naked building tools.
