ABOUT
The Photo Installation, DECOMPRESSION explores the distorted landscapes of anger and frustration—those volatile, often delusional states that distort reality and demand a target, even when none truly exists.
As an artist working at the intersection of memory, sensation, and social contradiction, I’m drawn to the moments when our inner narratives spill into the visible world—when feeling overtakes form. In this series, I invited participants to place their heads inside clear plastic bags, exaggerating their expressions, gestures, and inner noise. Not to suffocate—but to decompress.
The plastic bag becomes both absurd and revealing: a transparent boundary, a distorted lens, a visual metaphor for the mental loops we trap ourselves in. Anger, when examined, often reveals itself as a projection—a desperate attempt to make sense of discomfort by assigning blame to a fabricated enemy.
This work doesn’t attempt to neutralize rage, but to expose its theatricality. By asking the body to perform that distortion—to play with it, stretch it, overstate it—it becomes possible to see how unreal it often is. How isolating. How loud. How empty.
DECOMPRESSION invites us to laugh at our fury, to see through it, and to consider: what happens when we stop resisting the pressure and start releasing it?
