Private Project

The Myth of Human Capital

While we live in this time and space, two lovers live their last romantic pleas during their 24/7 routines. Distracted by euphoria and fervor, immersed in a consumer society where everything is ephemeral and disposable, they try to express unconformed and helpless observations about the failed attempt to understand the present and project the future through the past.

Director Statement

My artistic practice has its roots in the history of modernism in architecture, but it is when I confronting modernist utopias with the current orientation and instrumentalization of human actions, consumption and the boundaries between leisure and work, is where my work takes place in the crisis idea of future.
