Fluma is a time-based installation that unfolds the quiet choreography hidden inside everyday flora. Beginning with a self-built, slow-rotating turntable, documented single stems and small bouquets beneath a shifting lattice light. The controlled, almost scientific rotation exposes each petal and stamen from every angle, while the ambient lighting brushes them with gradients that never quite repeat. What appears at first to be a simple botanical study gradually reveals nested geometries - micro-cathedrals - that are usually lost to the speed of ordinary perception.

In post-production, the footage is decomposed and rebuilt as layered, translucent strata. Each flower becomes a digital moving sculpture made of itself: duplicated silhouettes slide across one another, delayed echoes of hue drift like after-images, and delicate outlines pulse at different frame rates. These layers create a sense of interior volume-an illusory space that seems to open inside the screen. Viewers are invited to peer through successive veils of colour and light, discovering liminal forms that bloom, collapse, and bloom again.

Sound completes the spatial illusion. By capturing dawn birdsong in the neighbourhood, weaving recordings with synthesized flickers that mimic insect stridulations and soft wind-borne debris. Sub-bass murmurs contour the lower register, while high-pitched, grain-sized clicks wander through the stereo field, suggesting life just beyond the frame. The resulting ambience functions as an aural lens: it enlarges the perceived distance between visual layers, so that the act of listening feels like walking deeper into the virtual bloom.

Fluma explores the threshold where natural phenomena become abstract form. By slowing rotation and multiplying exposure, hidden botanical architectures are made tangible; by floating them in a sound field that hints at unseen moments, a pocket of living space is conjured. Ultimately, the piece asks us to inhabit the intimate voids inside a flower-spaces that exist, yet remain invisible until light, motion, and sound collaborate to reveal them.
