“Content Under Extreme Pressure” is a collection that captures the collapse of worlds,with distorted bronze globes resting against untouched holders. The globe holders, one resembling a snake, take on an almost sentient quality, as if they are entities themselves. Echoing the concept of Hyperobjects, the works hint at the overwhelming forces behind the end of the world—while the globes crumble, their absurd foundations remain ironically undisturbed. The use of bronze, a material known for its longevity, contrasts with the collapsing forms of the globes, highlighting the tension between endurance and the inevitable decay of the world.
