Log Book Entry Before Storm is a site specific installation that unfolds within a house once split in two, divided by a concrete wall, to accommodate two families. The work reactivates this space by perforating the wall and reopening the possibility of movement, thought, and exchange. Around this restructuring of space emerges the dream-like and affective experience of the installation. Through this spatial intervention, the work invites flows of air, light, sound, depth, and imagination into the interiors of the house.  

Fragments of sea and signal enter the space: a lighthouse beams from afar, a deep-sea diver hovers mid-thought, and a monitor at the entrance pulses in Morse code. This coded transmission speaks across distances into the installation, and outwards, in dialogue with a plaque mounted on the Vypeen Light House in Kochi. A cabinet becomes a passageway. Fossilised ammonites on windowsills point to a time when the world’s tallest mountains serves as ocean floors. A rendition of the drawing of ‘Riemann Surface’, an endlessly looping form with no inside or outside, echoes the work’s recursive sensibility. Log Book Entry Before Storm charts a porous terrain between separation and continuity, domestic memory and oceanic drift.
