ABOUT THE WORK

The work explores “repetition” and “inheritance” within systems of intimacy. A position is repeatedly occupied, relationships are sustained within it, and actions are perpetually transmitted. Order persists unchallenged. When roles shift, the structure remains intact. The absurdity lies not in sudden events, but in a tacitly accepted and fulfilled contract.
