Art Club: Solar Dust

Solar Dust by Quiet Ensemble offers a captivating exploration of light, sound, and the interconnectedness of nature and technology.

First exhibited in Austria, Solar Dust will make its US debut at POST Houston. Founded in 2009 by Fabio Di Salvo and Bernardo Vercelli in Rome, Italy, Quiet Ensemble creates immersive work that is at the intersection of music, visual arts, and technology.

Solar Dust’s state-of-the-art lasers fire at a mass of steel-filament tulle, animating sinuous volumes of shadow and void. The choreographed dance of shadows and light implies the suspension of luminous particles in space. As visitors navigate the exhibition, they are invited to contemplate the delicate balance between light and dark, sound and silence, order and chaos.

Solar Dust opens June 1st on Level 2 of POST, with tickets starting at $7.

Introducing ÅRT — ČLUB

Solar Dust is the first exhibition organized by POST’s Art Club, an immersive art experience opening this fall that will be located on the ground floor of the X Atrium.
Blending elements of both art gallery and nightclub, Art Club introduces a fresh approach to inhabiting time-based art installations. Just as Day for Night music festival of 2017 catalyzed conversations about artistic expression in the digital age, Art Club aims to arouse the imagination of visitors and prompt discussion about technology’s mediation of our everyday lived experience.
The international roster of artists that will comprise Art Club’s first season will be announced in the early fall of 2024.
