About the Artwork

Suspended as a hyper-material body in a state of eerie stillness—part object of desire, part expired promise. Composed of synthetic and industrial remnants, the work mimics the marketable illusion of transformation while skipping over experience entirely. It offers only the residue: a distanced, post-authentic self, caught between ego and disappearance.
The work fabricates a space where heaven is halfway-down—where immediacy feels empty, and transcendence collapses into self-sabotage. It visualizes the commodity’s core promise as a sculptural form, rendering transformation both inevitable and futile. An ‘alreadyness’, a feeling of being too late for fulfillment and too early for release.
