Julian Hou's practice involves the development of audio fictions that integrate music with spoken language, hand made costume and printed clothing, as well as pattern-based digital collages rooted in drawing and design. Evoking affective states, mis-memory, magic, threshold consciousness and thought-forms, works are assembled into installations that engage psychophysiological experiences of the body and it’s extension into clothing and architectural interiors.
