Living Room aims to represent the influence of the speed of social media, which amplifies our possibilities while at the same time keeping us stagnant, in the attempt to keep up with an unrealistic pace of productivity.
They heighten both our productivity and our depressive phases, revealing how stuck we feel in relation to the world around us.
text from which I later developed the project
‘The foundations of this house stink. I sink into the comfort soaked in discomfort of the couch in my living room. I can’t get out, but I want to, I intensely want to, but I’m stuck.
I’ve only watched some crappy video of a guy making things explode, maybe another one where a cat does weird things, and hours have already passed, just like that. And I haven’t done anything.
I get up, instead of doing something I get lost in thinking about what I could do and waste time, again. Imagine if instead of just thinking about it I had actually done them, I would have already improved my skills in one of those silly things I believe in so much.’
