Outline

This interactive work is a virtual recreation of the traditional dyed cloth in a modern way. When touched by a finger, an elastic plain canvas that is softly glowing in the dark, becomes suffused throughout with beautiful colors, as if absorbing ink. Visitors can use not just their fingers but their fists or even their entire body to make patterns appear on the canvas cloth. This installation uses light to simulate the experience of dyeing cloth.
