Room for You

Immersive, time-based installation (8-minute loop)

Room for You is an immersive installation viewed through the façade of a modest American home. Over eight minutes, a series of ghostlike domestic scenes appears and dissolves inside the living room — celebrations, arguments, grief, companionship. Through the window behind the couch, the stark silhouette of a distant data center glows as daylight fades.

The work creates a contemplative space in which viewers consider the balance between familiarity and change — and the moments that push us to rise from the sofa into a world transforming quietly beyond the glass.

Visitors encounter the installation from a shallow porch-like platform, looking through a domestic window into the staged living room. The interior is fully built — rug, lamp, couch, bookshelves — while a projection system overlays translucent human scenes onto the glass, creating the sensation of figures inhabiting the space.

As the eight-minute loop progresses, the “sun” behind the house sets over a data center wall. The interior light dims. Human activity thins. Finally, an elderly man rises from the couch and turns off a lamp. Darkness falls; the data center remains illuminated.

The work relies on reflection, timing, and spatial tension rather than spectacle, encouraging viewers to sit with the emotional and infrastructural forces shaping contemporary life.
