"Using analog modular synthesizers, vinyl and resin records, self-built electronics, and wildly differentiated vocal techniques, her solo repertoire is body- and direction-referential. Frequently drawing and amplifying texture, tone, tension, color, and drama from sounds within the human body or an instrument, she juggles locations and distance between the sound source and the audience. Her deeply immersive multimedia works are like four-way conversations between human bodies, technology, traditional acoustic instruments, and invented or found materials."
"In the last few years, she has performed as a solo artist in North America, Japan, China, Mexico, Australia, New Zealand, the United Kingdom, and Europe. She has completed residencies in the Bay Area at the Audium and Headlands Center for the Arts, performed across the Bay Area, gone viral on TikTok, and transitioned into playing major concert halls, such as her upcoming appearance at Kronos Quartet's Beyond the Golden Gate (October 11, Zellerbach Hall, Berkeley)."
Evicshen is a San Francisco-based sound artist and instrument-maker who has performed solo across North America, Asia, Europe, Australia, and New Zealand. Her practice investigates the physical and spatial elements of sound through analog modular synthesizers, vinyl and resin records, self-built electronics, and diverse vocal techniques. Solo repertoire centers on body- and direction-referential exploration, amplifying texture, tone, tension, color, and drama from human and instrumental sources while managing distance between sound source and audience. The Same Rules Do Not Apply in The Outer Orbit is a work-in-progress with Kronos Quartet, slated to premiere during Beyond the Golden Gate alongside new works by women composers and pieces connected to Kronos.
