· Develop the artistic productions in parallel with a thorough study related to respiration.

S U K & A E R

SUK & AER are sister projects under PROJECT RESPIRATION.

SUK & AER is developed in the wish to do research about why it is so common and unnoticed that majority of us breathe superficially. A shallow respiratory process can be problematic, because the capacity of the lungs is not fully used, which over time may influence among others sleep, communication and the quality of life in general.
