This work can be interpreted as a “bird’s-eye view,” presenting not only the spatial layout of a site but also suggesting an abstract historical narrative. Dust, as a materialized symbol of time, becomes a visible trace of its passage, while simultaneously carrying the meaning of space and memory. The dust covering the ground both conceals traces of the past and reveals the irreversible and continuous impact of time.

In the lower-left corner of the work, the act of clearing away dust seeks to uncover stories and experiences that have already vanished—those functions and meanings once held by the site. However, when the dust is removed, what emerges are broken architectural frameworks, skeletal remains that have long since lost their function and can no longer even be called “buildings.” These structures bear the residual memory of the space, symbolizing the decline of industry and human activity, as well as the gradual reclamation by natural forces.

Through this subtle intervention, the work reflects on the complex and dynamic relationship between time, materiality, and human activity. The presence of dust serves both as a veil and as evidence, emphasizing the dual role of time in a site: it records the past while simultaneously erasing its meaning. By adopting an aerial perspective, this work condenses traces of time, spatial decay, and the fading of memory into a single frame, inviting viewers to engage in deeper reflections on the tensions between humanity and nature, history and the future.
