EJying is a live visual performance practice where Ebru painting becomes part of the music environment. Instead of mixing tracks or digital visuals alone, flowing marbling patterns are created and projected in real time, allowing water, pigment, light, and sound to interact inside the space. As the audience moves through the venue, the visuals travel across bodies, walls, and the dance floor—turning the crowd into part of the canvas.
Traditionally, Ebru patterns are transferred from the surface of water onto paper. In EJying, the patterns are projected instead—expanding the artwork beyond a single sheet and into the architecture of the room.
During these performances, live Ebru visuals unfold across the venue alongside the rhythm and movement of the crowd. Waves of color drift across people and surfaces, transforming the space into a living, moving canvas.
These environments often become collaborative. Participants may join the process—painting alongside me, interacting with the visuals, and contributing to the evolving atmosphere of the performance.
By combining traditional water marbling with projection, performance, and audience participation, EJying explores how a centuries-old practice can evolve into a shared, immersive experience.
