Hye Young Sin’s sound performance trashes began when she started collecting her own daily packaging waste and noticed how each fragment carried traces of her routines and surroundings. Gradually, these remnants of consumption revealed themselves as a record of everyday life, layered with social, economic, and cultural contexts.
Sin animates the discarded objects with small motors that generate vibrations and sounds. Moving freely in space, they produce unpredictable rhythms that unfold at the fragile threshold between order and chaos. Through these shifting patterns, the objects acquire a new temporality: no longer remnants of the past, they actively participate in the present moment.The performance invites the audience to reflect on how we perceive what surrounds us and encourages a reconsideration of what we deem disposable, whether objects, ideas, or even people.
Hye Young Sin is a Berlin-based artist working across visual art, experimental music, and live performance. In her sound-based works, she constructs material and sonic constellations in which objects operate as instruments and active agents. Using low-tech and DIY electronics, she foregrounds tensions between human intention and material autonomy.
