Impetus is an interdisciplinary installation that explores identity, digital existence and cultural preservation through the meeting points of classical Thai dance, Voguing, w*acking and new media. At the heart of the work are two 16 x 16 x16 LED matrix cubes: one manufactured, embodying a digital record of movement, the other hand soldered, symbolizing presence beyond what is seen and the hidden labour behind technology. Together, they aim to reveal and explore how cultural and human experiences are fragmented, mediated, and constrained within digital and non digital systems.
Visitors are welcome to drop in at any time and stay as long as they wish. The installation runs on a 10-minute loop. Capacity in the space is limited. Depending on attendance, there may be a short wait.
