"Who killed the ANTS?", is a project that illustrates a cycle of natural phenomena in nature and they imply on society.
The use of materials leads to a natural process of transformation and decay. I put the flour equal to the birth of nature world will change from time and space. Flour is used to document nature changes. There are maybe invisible/visible. these change naturally by the wind-water moisture over time.
Nature, transforms every second, Sometimes tardy; Sometimes rapidly, affecting nature.
The place was pure, but we never know how we are changed by the other external influence. which is unpredictable. Likewise, the flour will go from pure white to cloudy. I value every moment of change and the pace it takes to notice it.

However, once facing damages or disaster. We both find ways to escape or find the clue to solving the problem. The one who can escape, the one you can survive. Yet, the one who stays beside, who faces the loss and death.
