Conceptual Studio - Speculative Futures
Project type
Conceptual Studio
Date
Fall 2023
Description
Based off a future of socialism, as described by Peter Frase in his book, "Four Futures: Life After Capitalism", this project deals with a scarcity of natural resources (trees) and equality among all members of society. Rebuilding their world, there is an abundance of styrofoam which is dirty, broken, and unstructured, yet it helps hold bamboo, an important material due to its resilient and durable qualities. Jute twine is also scarce, yet very important as a building material since it can connect materials and people. Entering into a sacred repository meant to highlight pink lotus flowers, people are made to become aware of themselves and their role in the future. Traveling through, moments of forced connections allow people to understand the importance of everyone working together for a better future.
