Foam

An installation formed of various prosaic domestic and industrial chemicals engineered to hold the form of clouds and waves. This solid manifestation creates the glorious illusion of a frozen meteorology through which the viewer may stroll. A wonderful meditation on one of DTA's favorite subjects: matter and its whims.

Dark Silence in Suburbia
"Many of the flavors consumers crave today have no natural prototype (for example, the cola in Coca-Cola), and even those that do, have for the most part been turned into "larger-than-life" savors in the process of being synthesized."
- David Howes, 2005, Hyperesthesia [Empire Of The Senses]
