10 Kinds of Fog is a video installation at the "Dynamics of Air" exhibition at RMIT's gallery in Melbourne, Australia that explores and demonstrates how the depthless, formless phenomenon of fog can assume different forms, structures, and textures. It approaches fog as a material to design with — jointly shaped by the interactions of materials, air quality, and designer — rather than a phenomenon that merely happens.
Water is ultrasonically transformed into fog and propelled through different modulators and textiles. Different combinations of these and fan speeds become like costumes, while the air becomes a partner for the fog to act with, as the fog assumes different characters: wispy and buoyant, heavy and slithering, turbid and tempestuous, or eerie and still.
As a Technical and research assistant in this project, I researched and studied the behavior of fog, textures, and forms it can take, assisting my supervisors (Gyungju Chyon & John Sadar, little wonder studio) with designing and manufacturing the structure.)
