b1unt b1ade

through a million miles of dreams
Exhibition, Performance & Zine Release by Jessyca R. Hauser

b1unt b1ade, the sonic alter-ego of transdisciplinary artist Jessyca R. Hauser, moves between vulnerability and force, weaving industrial textures, choral resonance, and drone into atmospheric soundscapes that flicker between the intimate and the monumental.
The voice serves as the medium through which fear, desire, memory, and power continuously change their relation to one another. At the opening night b1unt b1ade is going to perform their debut release core. https://b1untb1ade.bandcamp.com/album/core

The videowork “through a million miles of dreams” was created in 2025 in collaboration with filmmaker Laura Hyppönen. Hyppönen created a series of scenes, inspired by the writings of James Hillmann and Carl Jung, seeking a visual expression for b1unt b1ade’s music. The two channel installation will be presented throughout the exhibition.

The accompanying zine “you make me feel like a natural disaster” compiles texts written in Brazil 2018 during the democratic crisis and neofascist breakthrough of Bolsonarism. Intense emotions intertwined with political realities build the poetic rhythm of the textual work framed in a riso-printed zine. Previously presented as a 5.1. audio installation, the work is now being assembled in its original form.
