Dust is comprised of a number of white cotton doilleys, which are ornamental mats, often made from paper or fabric. They are used for decorative purposes and also act as a protective layer on polished or delicate surfaces. The piece explores the influence of time and how some memories of home and empire disintegrate whilst others become more vivid.
