It Without A Blink is a major performance by Berlin-based artist Eunhye Hwang. The performance marked the opening of Constellation, an exhibition that brings together four Korean artists who live and work outside of Korea.

Hwang’s performances investigate communication through public interventions that draw on participatory engagement by an often unexpecting audience. For It Without A Blink, members of the audience are invited to register their names that will then be orchestrated into a complex arrangement of movement and vocalisation by the artist and an eclectic group of singers and dancers, and performed back to them.

Huang’s previous notable performances include PS1 at MOMA, New York in 2010, Body and Eros Venice Biennale, SONAR Kunstmuseum Celle, Germany and Insomnia Le Generateur, Paris in 2007.
