A piece commissioned by ROH Projects, Jakarta for the "Split Body" Exhibition by Virginnie Ittah & Kai Yoda (Ittah Yoda), 5 June - 20 July.

The goal is to create a piece based on the duelling vibes/atmospheres of both artists. 
Virginnie Ittah's piece is lighter and airier, while Kai Yoda's piece is darker, more percussive. 
Ittah's piece occupies the left channel, while Yoda's piece occupies the right.
Both pieces are played simultaneously during the exhibition, with variations, spanning 35 minutes each.

The resulting track you hear is both pieces combined together as one track, as I originally made it to be. It features the initial bodies of both pieces, which span only 5 minutes each, which I later expanded as required.

I would like to thank both Virginnie and Kai, as well as ROH Projects, for the opportunity to work with them and provide the sounds to their beautiful artworks. Special thanks also to Mahamboro, who mastered the track, and to the XHABARABOT Ambiex machine that I partially used for the composition.

"SPLIT BODY" Exhibition Description:

ROH is pleased to present Split Body, the gallery’s first solo exhibition of artist duo Ittah Yoda — Virginie Ittah (b. 1984, Paris) and Kai Yoda (b. 1985, Tokyo). Since meeting at the Royal College of Art in London, the artists have developed a collaborative practice grounded in virtual world-building and nomadic material research, creating multi-sensorial environments that unfold across media.

The exhibition features a new body of work spanning painting, sculpture, virtual reality, sound, and scent—inviting viewers into an interplay of the five senses. In Split Body, Ittah Yoda interrogate the boundaries of the body and its potential multiplicities—across physical, spiritual, and technological realms. Their collaborative process blurs individual authorship, merging multicultural perspectives into a shared artistic language, while maintaining distinct agency.

The concept of a “split” or rupture runs throughout: painting becomes a psychic terrain; virtual reality conjures disembodied sensations; scent activates affect and memory. Guided by the notion of the Symbiocene—an era of balanced coexistence between human and non-human forms—the exhibition imagines hybrid embodiments that defy binaries of natural/digital, real/unreal, and human/non-human.

Developed through two residencies with ROH—at DESA, Ubud (2024) and Rumah Tangga, Depok(2025)—Split Body folds together “genetic-artistic” material from Indonesia, Greece, and France into an evolving ecosystem. Through an accumulative journey of cultural and material gathering, the exhibition proposes forms of being that are yet to come.
