Plot
CH is a collaborative video project crafted in 2023 by Daria Kim in tandem with Uzbekistani musician Josef Tumari. The visual piece captures anxiety, portraying the physical manifestations of this feeling through plasticine shape-shifting bodies that seamlessly transform into landscapes. Dry Central Asian terrains linger in anticipatory tension, awaiting seismic shifts. The poem, situated at the culmination point of the video work, also emerges from anxiety. It has been translated and voiced by the DeepL, for whom, due to its inanimate origin, this feeling remains unknown.
