TiNTiY looks at the impact of (social) media on society as it focuses on oversharing, over-saturation and the bombardment of information on a near constant basis.  Sung Im reflects the physiological effects of this on the physical body.   Playing with the fun aspects of challenges, memes, skits and all manner of “entertaining content” people put out, the work counters that with the darker undertones and realities behind the façade, the multitude of opinions, alternative truths, conspiracy theories and all manner of information that help create confusion, anxiety and perpetuate the unease and precarity faced in society.  

Performed on a stage, where the starkness of its raw form is highlighted with only designed lighting and club like sounds composed by musical duo Husk Husk filling the space, three dancers perform overly produced gestures, as they move between their independent selves, into a shared entanglement and back again, blurring the lines of their individual and collective identities.  

TiNTiY recognizes that (social) media is firmly a part of (and for some the centre of) our everyday lives, and because of that asks how we can use it to create more positive experiences and a more productive society.
