Ephemeral Materiality delves into the interpretation of Studio Scarlett Yang's long-term research in biomaterial technology, which are comprised of ocean water, algae seaweed extract, and 3D fabrication.

As the audience approaches the digital screen, a captivating display of nature-like digital skins materialise around their silhouettes. These intricate, detailed visual patterns resemble turbulent ocean waves crashing upon human skin. 

This multidisciplinary approach to digital mediums represents a new frontier of experience that blends artistry, technology, and scientific inquiry.
