Bio

I am BSP, a synesthetic artist and performer who paints, sings and plays the canvas on stage all at once. My paintings are connected to sensors that produce sounds every time I touch them with brushes or hands, allowing you to experience synesthesia firsthand.

Being a synesthetic artist is like having a secret window into the world of art. It's an extraordinary gift that allows me to see the world differently, through a beautiful tapestry of sensations. For me, every musical note is a stroke of colour, and every colour is a dancing melody. Synesthesia makes it possible to feel music on the skin and see sound by painting the future. It's a world where the senses embrace, a celebration of sensory diversity, and an ode to the beauty of human uniqueness. In my shows and exhibitions, diversity becomes a common thread that connects hearts and minds, making each of us an integral part of the artistic narrative. Through this special interaction with you, I transform the concept of synesthesia into a shared experience, celebrating diversity as an invaluable treasure to cherish and protect.

My most recent performances and works have been displayed at Venice Biennale 2022 (Italy) and Tate Modern (London, UK) in June 2022. A documentary about my performance “The Blending of Senses” is on air on Sky Arts tv channel from January 3rd 2023.

Artist Statement

I am BSP, a synesthetic artist and performer, and my art is a symphony of colours, sounds, and sensations woven together in a tapestry of sensory marvels. On stage, I paint, sing, and play the canvas simultaneously, creating a multisensory experience that invites you to journey through the synesthetic world. My canvas is not static; it's a living, breathing entity, intimately connected to sensors that produce sounds with every brushstroke and touch. This integration allows you to step directly into the realm of synesthesia, where sight and sound dance together in an intricate and mesmerizing partnership.

Synesthesia is a gift I've embraced, a secret window through which I explore the boundless connections between colours and melodies. For me, each musical note becomes a brushstroke of vibrant hues, while every colour transforms into a melodic dance. This unique perspective enables me to feel the music on my skin and paint the future through sound and colour. It's a world where the senses harmonize, an anthem to sensory diversity, and a celebration of the beauty found in human individuality.

In my shows and exhibitions, I weave a common thread of diversity that unites hearts and minds, inviting each spectator to become an integral part of the artistic narrative. It's a transformative interaction where we collectively explore the wondrous landscape of synesthesia, celebrating the rich tapestry of human experiences.

My recent artistic endeavours have graced prestigious platforms, including the Venice Biennale 2022 (Italy) and Tate Modern (London, UK) in June 2022. Additionally, a captivating documentary showcasing my performance, 'The Blending of Senses' has been broadcast on the Sky Arts TV channel since January 3rd, 2023.

Through my art, I invite you to join me on a remarkable journey, where sensory boundaries dissolve, and the beauty of diversity shines as an invaluable treasure we all share, celebrate, and protect.
