The exhibition unfolds as an installation that speaks to both the built architecture of capitalism and the more intimate, domestic spaces it encloses. Shifting between expansive, external structures and inward, often hidden interiors, the piece explores how bodies move through, are shaped by, and sometimes resist the systems around them. The visual language of the work reflects a fascination with structure and improvisation: the grid-like layouts of cities, the claustrophobia of narrow streets, and the maze-like sprawl of urban design that limits perspective while promising order. Through performance, gesture, and cinematography, the installation invites reflection on how capitalism imprints itself onto the body through architecture, routine, and restriction.
