When you whisper in my dream
2022-2023; Installation; Mixed Media: Grass, soil, airbag, air pumps, pillow, pipes, screen, sounds from four locations
The sounds of the wind, birds, leaves, are like nature's talking, a way for it to communicate with us and transmit natural signals. Through these sounds I hope to evoke memories of the raw life force from nature and to make people experience it and realise our common presence and influence.
In a time of prevalent anthropocentrism, we often lose sight of our intrinsic connection to nature. By breathing the ebb and flow of the pillow, I reveal the intimate connection between us. This time, we can reconsider our relationship with nature and find a healing method from it.

In a time of prevalent anthropocentrism, we often lose sight of our intrinsic connection to nature. By the breathing flow of the lawn, I reveal the intimate connection between natural and us. Finally, we can reconsider our relationship with nature and find a healing method from it.

I let each of these sounds do its own thing, the wind passing by in clusters, bringing about changes of colour in the picture; the rattling of the grass and leaves shaking like soft leather straps; the birds and insects loud and undulating, scurrying out of the picture from time to time; the sound of traffic as an occasional elastic line passing by, which cbutton 6 1an be stretched out and drifted away.
Finally, these sounds overlapped, intertwined, and faded together into a complete picture, as if the lawn whispering softly in my dreams.
