Ayumi Paul is an artist, violinist and composer who explores the interdependency of all phenomena through listening and engaging the nonlinearity of time. She trained as a classical violinist and performed at many of the world’s major concert halls for more than 15 years, while developing her inter-disciplinary approach to researching how sound and perception influence the malleability of what we see and how we relate to one another. Her artistic projects are often shared as new languages, rituals, habits and heightened sensitivities which can instantly be applied to everyday life.
