What's Left Of Utopia

2014

This project reflects on a desolate landscape, shaped by the inhumanity of the structures we create. Amid a blend of grief and hope, figures emerge, teetering on the edge of disappearance, swallowed by the fog that envelops these urban utopias—once hailed as symbols of progress.

Reduced to disembodied witnesses, they are drawn into a drama with an uncertain conclusion, their presence a quiet reminder of humanity's fragile place within its own ambitions.

“We desire our present civilization to advance steadily toward some kind of Utopia. The thought that it may decay and collapse, and that all its spiritual treasure may be lost irrevocably, is repugnant to us. Yet this must be faced as at least a possibility. And this kind of tragedy, the tragedy of a race, must, I think, be admitted in any adequate myth.”
