Collapse 2024
A Material-Based Investigation of Dissolution
Collapse is a material and form-based exploration of dissolution, where the boundary between the personal and the structural becomes fluid. The work articulates collapse as a multidimensional process—a simultaneous movement between the individual and the collective, the psychological and the political. Mental exhaustion, economic systems in decline, ecological crises on the brink of irreversibility, and unstable political structures converge in a visual and tactile composition.
Through its materiality and formal expression, the work embodies the question: What remains when the systems we rely on begin to falter and disintegrate? Collapse functions as a material metaphor for the existential tensions of our time—a space where breakdown is not solely an endpoint, but also a threshold for renegotiation, reconstruction, and transformation.
