CATCH-22
COLLECTIVE
VIDEO + INSTALLATION
2021
A video installation capturing the feeling of being trapped in a paradox—longing for escape while constrained by forces beyond one’s control. Through fragmented movement and looping imagery, it reflects the tensions between consciousness, external judgment, and the subconscious. Created during the Covid-19 pandemic, it mirrors the contradiction of continuous artistic creation with no space for presentation. The work unfolds as a suspended moment, where actions remain unfinished and time seems frozen. It invites the viewer into an intimate confrontation with their own layered identity and the quiet struggle to reach its core.
