To be housed inside a form that pulsates with activities, known and unknown, is a universal state of being. Our corporeal homes are lively, intricate, and perplexing, and they define our experience. Turning bodies inside out, by imbuing their signals into objects, spaces, and substances, unburdens a desire to reveal our internal worlds.

Lullaby intimates home as body by utilizing technology and fluid substances to animate biological information and material imagination. The configuration contests inside and outside by exposing its construction/artifice and hiding its main stage act. Animating biological data, fluid substances, and inanimate objects scrambles notions of what is living and non-living. The domestic displays signs of life that resonate with our own rhythms of rest and respiration.
