From Manila, Philippines, Anjeline de Dios (b.1982) is an artist, teacher, and writer whose chant practice builds connections between sound art, meditation, and decolonial humanities. She is currently a resident artist of the Goethe Institut Indonesien’s REFLEKT Residency hosted by SAVVY Contemporary in Berlin.
In this talk-performance-meditation Anjeline de Dios reflects on the notion of ‘listening to listening’. Through her practice of chants she explores healing as a complex sonic phenomenon; not only the act of giving attention to, and being affected by, literal sound, but also the relational-infrastructural task of building symbolic, discursive, and material frames: In a common effort to exercise solidarity across difference and conflict, she makes an appeal for approaches that integrate critical, self-reflexive thinking with a tender, experimental relatedness towards our own and each other’s affective and embodied selves, reiterating the generative potency of sound for this integrative work.
