Exhibition Text:
The external violence morphs into self-inflicted violence, perpetuated by the relentless illusion of free will within the framework of self-exploitation. Madness and depression, akin to murky water, emerge as pathological symptoms of an accelerated society. Amid the constant updates and iterations of digital interfaces and connections, we are propelled into becoming an allegory.
