"Dispatched” is a site-responsive, immersive installation that integrates sculpture, video, and sound to create a multisensory environment. The work unfolds as a subtle disruption, prompting viewers to question perception and look inward as emotional and physical narratives are entangled.

​

Central to the installation are discarded chairs stripped of their original function and history,  wrapped obsessively in elastic thread and sealed with wax. These familiar objects become delicate, cocoon-like forms that suggest both relics and chrysalises, evoking absence and the potential for transformation. Suspended at varying heights, the chairs appear to hover, neither anchored nor absent.

​

A dynamic video projection illuminates the installation with shifting light and movement, as waves transition into shadow and images recede into stillness. For most of the video, the isolated sound of a single water droplet remains distinct from the rapid motion of the waves, intensifying the tension between visual and auditory elements. Within this interplay of presence and absence, boundaries become indistinct. I invite viewers into a space characterized by uncertainty, where memory, sensation, and silence converge. This environment does not offer resolution, but rather resonance, encouraging contemplation of what is seen, felt, and remembered.
