Synopsis

The work uses currency as its medium, transforming the imagery of paper money through metallization and rustification to symbolize the decay of the old system on the eve of the digital currency era. It reflects the global upheavals of the first half of the 21st century: the wavering of the dollar-dominated system, the isolation wrought by Brexit, Europe's ongoing predicaments, the labyrinthine conflict in Ukraine, and the harm inflicted upon civilians by violence in Israel.
Simultaneously, it documents the comprehensive rise of an Eastern power across political, economic, and cultural spheres. Through its visual metaphors of corrosion and distortion, the work serves as both a witness to the absurdity and violence of our time and a calm, steady gaze into the transformations yet to come.
