Pan Daijing

Pan Daijing is a Chinese artist and composer based in Berlin whose practice primarily engages with performance, installation, sound, and moving images. Drawing on the capacity of music to exceed the limits of language and distort the passage of time, her work seeks to communicate physical, psychological, and sonic depths, invoking a collective experience of solitude.

Her three studio albums — including Lack (2017) and Tissues (2022), the music from her five-act opera of the same name commissioned by Tate Modern — develop an approach to electronic and vocal sound that is simultaneously intense and deeply personal.
