Tzeshi Lei is a Berlin-based dance artist, born and raised in Taiwan, who in this episode shares her research into the complexity of language. Drawing on her personal experience of living and working between Mandarin - a dialect of Chinese, German and English, Tzeshi explores the dimensionality of language which she see’s as a ‘hyperobject’ that it is containing us, while at the same time we are containing the language.

In dialogue with her movement practice which is rooted in Qigong, Tai Chi and Butoh dance, Tzeshi has come to describe language as ‘embodied anatomy’, approaching language as a series of entangled layers, similar to the layers of the body - such as facia, muscles and bones. Tzeshi asks how we can expand the nuances of spaces in between words and information, and therefore expand the many means by which we articulate worlds.
