The concept explores imagined conversations and interactions among the deceased, envisioning a spacewhere secrets, stories, and wisdom are shared. Although such exchanges are impossible, we can ritualiseand imagine them, conversations that may begin in disagreement and gradually move towardunderstanding. In this sense, the deceased continue to exist alongside us.The artwork consists of 10 fabric-adorned portals, symbolising preparation for the afterlife andconnection. Controlled by independent micro-controllers, the portals generate random sounds andmovements triggered by detecting the visitors.
