Profile

[Hydroblasting]
Hydroblasting is a cleaning method in which high water pressure or a mixture of high water pressure and sand is sprayed from a nozzle onto the surface of a casting. In this system, a blasting material (water) is made to collide with an object to be cleaned called a workpiece to remove dirt and paint adhering to the surface. This method has been mainly used to remove white lines, graffiti and dirt from roads. The theater was named after the artist's desire to make the theater function as a place to disperse, remove, and wash away all boundaries, discontinuities, stereotypes, discrimination, and prejudices defined in society by injecting the tool of theater, and to ensure diversity in society.
