Work Description | Her work uses micro-material to create abstract images and noise. In her series of work Dust, considers dust collected from her room as a self-portrait, evidence of being, an instrument of sound and elements for images. By putting actual dust into audio-visual devices, she reveals the stories and memories behind dust while providing a critical response to the current fetish for high-resolution images. |

The Dust Room
The Dust Room is an immersive environment filled with airborne dust and moving dust images and dust soundscape.
The images come from glass tubes filled with dust material collected from my house and blown and stirred by electric
motors and fans with certain on and off intervals, projected through six modified slide projectors.
The changing shadows and lights from the dust projection hitting on 6 light sensors modifying the soundscape in
The Dust Room through a mini analog synthesizer in order to give the soundscape a organic from.
Dust fascinated me because of the complexity as a compound material more importantly I see dust as an evidence of existence.
By enlarged the Micro dust material through projectors into a landscape size of images given an immersive way of looking at dust images.
House dust contains organic material from the owners and wasted materials indicate the owner’s life in pass tense.
The idea of trace and dust is enhance the sense of interactive by looking at human interaction in a new possible – microphysical
material exchange by staying in one location without physical touch. In this work, I consider air-borne dust collected from my room
as a medium allows people whom visited and staying at The Dust Room inhaling part of me without the actual me being present in the room.
