Sounding Shell New York Performances

“Sounding Shell” is presented as a live program within the Jewish Museum’s exhibition context, situating performance inside a space built for looking and listening. Featured performer Afruz Amighi brings a practice shaped by material research and migration histories, using sound to test how objects and bodies carry memory. In New York, where museums increasingly host time-based work, the piece reads as part of that shift from static display to live encounter. Its restraint is its argument: attention becomes the medium.
