Esther Yi-Chun Lin: Burning Stones at Künstlerhaus Bethanien
KÜNSTLERHAUS BETHANIEN ✳ BERLIN
THE PROGRAMME.
Esther Yi-Chun Lin’s video installations create a sweatbox where the body, odour, colonial archives and Taiwan’s sulphur-mining history meet.
At Künstlerhaus Bethanien, Esther Yi-Chun Lin juxtaposes video works for the first time in Burning Stones. A projected sweating belly and a massage video form a sweatbox linking body odour to history, colonial archive material, Taiwan’s sulphur mines and somatic memory. The exhibition runs 11 September–15 November 2026. It asks how landscape, recollection and belonging are inscribed in the body, and presents the artist’s processed visual material as a counter-archive.
