If you don't feel confused after watching this... haha
But if you do feel confused, I want to assure you that you are not alone.
Short recap: At the beginning of spring of 2025 I made a sculpture that I presented during my Masters interim show at CSM UAL, where I wrote 'how much is enough' and I asked people to write what their take on this was. I knew back then that I'd make a video piece out of this experience, but I left it for my future self to worry about it..
My present self (or future self from back then): for the past couple of months my brain was wiring hard to make sense of the sculpture. What's the deal with all the drama on the stage? With a clear and rested mind I came to the conclusion that, visually, the physical sculpture I made… it didn't make sense :))))) however, it accurately reflected my personal feelings at that time and this was my own response to this topic back then.
The video is a collection of moments that were happening around me (before the show and during), processed through my own perspective and shaped into this final piece.
Thank you to all the people who participated and expressed their thoughts on the sculpture during the CSM interim show! Also, thank you to people who made complaints about the sculpture, and caused a removal haha
Big thanks to my friend @Khadijat for collaborating on the music composition for this video.
