About works / performance

How do we perceive subtle occurrences in everyday life? It quietly continues everywhere to appear and disappear. We can't grasp everything.
We are creating our installation works by carefully extracting some narratives about subtle occurrences from daily life using sound light and fragments of the matter as languages. It's making an audience to experience keeping void things in own mind by small stories coming up and disappear. We would get vague awareness and share.
