Marco Donnarumma — Ex Silens (2024)

A body fitted with sensory prostheses circulates its movements and internal signals through sound, light and touch. In Ex Silens, Marco Donnarumma turns hearing technologies into organs of connection with the audience.

Developed through research into deafness, the performance refuses a single model of the “normal” body. Technology becomes a site of shared sensory experience, intimate and unsettling.
