Vitiligo-3
LED light, gauze, ice, flour, bean powder, rope, wood,
plant resin, olive oil and salt

Inspired by vitiligo, I link mummification ingredients such as plant resin, oil, and salt to my routine that temporarily makes skin disease disappear.
Glowing brightly on the melting ice at a high angle is surrounded by gauze mixed with soybean powder, water and flour. Vitiligo looks parasitic in the body, similar to gluten, It expresses that vitiligo can momentarily get better. And around here, there are pieces of wood tied with ropes and small sculptures of plant resin, olive oil, and salt that unconventional smell as you get closer. Over time, ice melts, LED lights are located at low angles, and lights are off and on, which means that vitiligo is reoccurring. I intend to show the routine in which vitiligo temporarily fades depending on the angle as the ice melts. I think that the fact that vitiligo can be improved according to the human’s attention can soon improve my unfamiliar feelings according to the angle. Inspired by mummification, these small sculptures are an expression of an eternal parasite of unfamiliar emotions that can never be cured.
Through this work, I ask the audience what eternal unfamiliar feelings are.
