Just as ideas shift and evolve when placed in different contexts, so too has this installation changed, adapting to reflect new environments and conceptual frameworks. The sculptures feel less like final artifacts and more like mutable forms—each piece exists as a response to the iterations that came before, carrying traces of its past while simultaneously being altered by the present.
There’s a tension in the way these objects interact: familiar motifs are deconstructed and recombined, while new materials introduce unexpected elements that disrupt the logic of the space. Some forms appear to loop back on themselves, others splinter into fragments, as if caught in a moment of conceptual reassembly. The exhibition acts as a reflection on the way ideas themselves can evolve—sometimes slowly, sometimes with jarring shifts—transforming in response to external stimuli.
What_a_life(unttilted) captures this instability and movement, mirroring the non-linear way thoughts, memories, and influences connect and change over time. In doing so, the installation transcends its initial physicality, becoming an active field of thought in three dimensions—where objects, like ideas, are always in flux, absorbing and refracting new meanings as they adapt to their surroundings.
