Re–Drum is a mechanical installation made of stainless steel, resembling an open chamber framed by two L-shaped walls and centered around a large, horned sphere. When activated, the outer wall presses inward, gradually enclosing the space and leaving violent imprints on the ground. Once fully sealed, a loud, resonant sound erupts—followed by the sphere forcefully pushing outward to reopen the chamber. This cyclical sequence unfolds in a continuous loop, serving as a visceral metaphor for force and resistance.
