Performance
Carolin Schnurrer | artist, Solar Futures resident
Orbiting Other Rhythms explores the friction between cyclical bodies and linear systems of productivity – between fluctuating energy and its relentless extraction. Tracing histories of bodily control, from witch hunts and instruments of silencing to medical misdiagnosis and gender bias in healthcare, the performance positions the non-normative body as a site of transmission, generating live sound from within. Drawing on collective mourning rituals and rave culture, it transforms exhaustion into collective release and reclaims rhythms that resist being measured, controlled or governed.
Carolin Schnurrer is a Berlin-based artist working across sound, installation and performance. Drawing on her personal experience with chronic illness, her practice explores vulnerability and power structures through transformative sensory experiences informed by speculative fiction, somatic psychology and deep listening.
Since completing her MA at the Royal College of Art, London, her work has been presented i.a. at Tate Modern Lates, Serpentine Park Nights, ACCA Melbourne and MIRA Barcelona.
