The installation examines the interplay between virtual and physical objects. A 3D scanned pile of soil is projected onto a metal mesh covered with piles of fragrant plants, activating scent to alter our spatial perception. The boundary between the two realities is seemingly eluded by a fluid transition between the ontological space of physical nature and the interpretive virtual space.
