Nodes of Temporary Assembly
Ongoing project (2026)
Artist Statement
The project explores the mechanisms of constructing life within an unstable environment where baseline stability is absent. The focus is not on the static forms of a home, but on dynamic equilibrium—an uneven stability that is not guaranteed by the urban environment but requires continuous maintenance through bodily practices and routes. Moving away from permanent structures, the project focuses on navigational stabilization, summarized in the thesis: “I am my routes.”
Through the micropolitics of the body (stepping, repeating, pausing, touching) and material effort, the work reclaims the right to a space that formally does not belong to the subject. Urban situations—passage, dependence, threshold—are deconstructed and translated into the structure of an object through compression, tension, and direct contact.
