Petro-Culture Pipeline is a small fluid system installation that uses liquid circulation, temperature control, and color changing materials to simulate the distillation and refining of crude oil and its final output as cultural products. Through fieldwork, data collection, chemical experiments and real-time image generation, the project exposes how oil, as a raw material, is involved and hidden in our history, culture, and everyday life.
