As luminous, hand-shaped fish drift through darkness, they gather, disperse, and dissolve—echoing the dreamlike migration of memory, loss, and rebirth beneath the surface of perception.
Dreams of Salmon is a live media performance projected as an architectural media facade. Created in collaboration with the Encore Institute in Ohio, the work explores the cyclical nature of life and death through the metaphor of salmon—creatures whose journey mirrors the human struggle against time, loss, and return.
By merging real-time performance with generative visuals, the piece immerses viewers in a moving ritual of transformation.
