I aim to capture the essence of a dystopian reality where humanity’s survival hangs by a thread amidst the ruins of civilization. The central focus of the piece is a solitary girl, isolated within the desolation of a broken, empty house, ensnared by electronic wires that symbolize the entanglement of technology and society’s downfall.
The juxtaposition of the girl’s presence with the dilapidated surroundings serves as a stark contrast to the concept of utopia, highlighting the harsh realities of a world plagued by struggle and constraint. The brokenness of the house mirrors the shattered dreams of a once-promising future, now marred by chaos and despair.
The girl’s only source of sustenance and illumination is her backpack, fashioned in the shape of a machine, representing her reliance on technology for survival in this post-apocalyptic landscape. As she sits amidst the ruins, the backpack emits a faint glow, casting eerie shadows that accentuate the feeling of isolation and desolation.
The overarching theme of loneliness pervades the piece, evoking a sense of existential despair as the girl grapples with the harsh realities of her existence. Like a cocoon trapped in stasis, unable to see the future.
I seek to provoke reflection on the fragility of human existence and the inherent vulnerability of society in the face of catastrophe.
