Set in a near future, the video follows a mascot known as The Dream Maiden, whose mission is to inspire citizens to hold onto their dreams and believe in the future. Each night, she roams the city with her eyes closed, turning dreams into reality only for those who can pay the price. The film reflects on a world where dreaming itself has become a commodity, melting into the logic of streaming subscriptions, where even hopes and fantasies are monetized.

Skin is more than just a covering — it's a living screen, reflecting what's inside us. This short visual journey explores the creation of artificial, lab-grown skin, blurring the line between biology and technology. 

Percolations, 6:30 - Suejin Hong, Noémie Rubio Meau 
The video interweaves two entangled narratives—one exploring a post-human sensorium, the other tracing the Cold War’s toxic legacy beneath the Ice Sheet. A divided screen allows visual layers to echo, bleed, and interrupt each other, forming a porous ecology of perception and memory. One thread imagines the body inhabited by a non-pathological entity born of digital and natural debris, which alters sensory capacities while enabling new modes of relationality. The other follows resurfacing pollutants and infrastructures through glacial melt, exposing the fragility of climate models and the politics of uncertainty. Mineral, water, and skin serve as shared thresholds between the two narratives, dissolving boundaries between body and world. Time dilates across the work, inviting viewers into an unstable terrain where sensation, history, and geology converge.
