Quiet Mark of Living
2022

video and sound installation
sound: stereo 2.0

I contemplate the traces we leave behind. I projected dust that has drifted from my body onto to forgotten photographs. Three of my old photos lies on pedestals, and I have abraded their surfaces into disappearance. The video projection appears only in fleeting fractions of a second, so that the metal plates seem mostly empty. The dustfall also reflects onto the sculpture stands, the floor, and the walls.

I created a kind of abandoned grave markers in the corner of the exhibition space and projected dust imagery from my own life onto them. Melancholy, transience, and mortality are, in my opinion, always hidden undercurrents in my works. Creating art feels like leaving a trace in a specific moment – and over time, its interpretation may transform.
