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.
General Admission Tickets start at $10. Children ages 12 and under are $5. Purchase tickets here.

About the Exhibitor
Quiet Ensemble is a creative studio specializing in unexpected audiovisual experiences. Their immersive installations and interactive works explore the balance between nature and technology, using light and sound as primary tools for creation.
Founded in 2009 by Fabio Di Salvo and Bernardo Vercelli, Quiet Ensemble generates audiovisual performances and installations by capturing the essence of various objects and creatures, from goldfish to pineapples to clouds. Their research delves into the delicate balance between chaos and control, nature and technology, creating works that merge organic and artificial elements. They focus on seemingly insignificant yet wonderful details, such as the movement of a fly or the sound of trees.
Celebrating the “invisible concerts” around us every day, Quiet Ensemble strives to reveal the hidden or often overlooked aspects of our environment.
