A sleepy sanctuary filled with an arrangement of cozy objects: draping fabric, natural materials, pillows, ceramic coral and crocheted mesh. A large projection of an anemone fluctuates just inside a cave archway, next to an oil painting of tangled lines.
Nestled in a corner, a globular cube acts as a portal - inside of which a figure sleeps (playing on a tv screen). Jellyfish obscure the view as the person falls deeper into dreams. Wire creatures quietly react to the presence of visitors, lighting up in response to sound—small signals that something in this world is listening, even if it doesn’t speak.
