When the Invisible Touches the Surface

The Dock
Leitrim,Ireland

In this exhibition, Caline Aoun presents constructed setups that unveil invisible forces perpetually shaping and transforming our environment. Her works capture transitional moments, blurring the boundaries between evolving states and conditions. These ephemeral states serve as amplified representations of dynamic exchanges, artificially rendering visible and tangible natural phenomena like condensation, heat transfer from sunlight or electronic devices, and the cyclical nature of trees shedding their leaves.
All the works in the space explore the notion of entropic time, allowing for the accumulation or dissipation of energy, leading to transformation—a change in condition or state. Despite the works’ seemingly impermeable surfaces, they remain circumstantial and sensitive to the conditions of the space, such as temperature or daylight, or the materials involved in their making.
