Goodnight.Â

2025
Goodnight is a video installation in which audiences are invited to lie down on a bed and watch a phone-sized video that moves through a sleepy, intimate reflection on insomnia, memory, and care. The work centers on the uneasy realization that making the bed can function as an act of erasure, removing the traces of sleep and, with them, the evidence of having had a body there at all. Through soft narration, ghostly imagery of bed sheets, and a slowed, drifting temporal rhythm, the video lingers in the threshold between wakefulness and sleep, where thought becomes repetitive, fragile, and unstable. Intermittent alarms interrupt this suspension, pulling attention back into alertness and emphasizing the instability of rest as something that is continually broken or withheld.
