The human experience is filled with moments, connections, glances, and conversations; interactions that are ephemeral and invisible, happenings that rarely get stored in our memories. Although, those events are the fine threads that weave our intricate social fabric and sit at the centre and inspiration of ‘void’. An attempt at rendering visible these events, offering the witness a gaze by translating these interactions, and instants into physical vectors that bridge our lives.
As mentioned, this installation pivots and highlights the anthropoid experience, celebrating the valuable platforms that act as a stage to create, expand, and scale these unique opportunities. Ultimately, offering a moment to step back, and savour the present experience granted by efforts such as the platform that houses the event itself.
