An old friend enters my dream, illuminating my enduring memories of us." We envisioned a spatial arrangement that utilizes the semi-translucent texture of tulle mesh as the primary medium. The use of compatible and contrasting colors attempts to promote an ambiguous relationship between people. The intrinsic warmth and intimacy evoked generates a resonant color palette to enhance the aesthetics within the space and subtly encourage closer interpersonal interactions. An integral part of this scene is the concept of the "threshold state" - a period of potential but uncertainty. The dual nature of the threshold is both a time of new possibilities and a time of instability. By incorporating different and compatible color projects into the tulle web, we aim to visualize the concept of threshold. Creating a theoretical construction of a language. We create a continuum between the realms of the virtual and the real, the transparent and the opaque. This blurred vision gives an ambiguous and seductive atmosphere. The complex nature of human relationships is felt, oscillating between intimacy and distance, visibility and mystery. By creating a space that embodies these principles, it invites participants to reflect on the interplay between ideologies, cultural practices and social structures. People are encouraged to experiment with the dialog between reason and sensibility.
