About the artwork
Permutations of Presence
This collection explores how we exist across the different systems that shape us. Each environment demands its own mode of presence: the way you exist in a city grid differs from how you exist in code, in memory, or under information overload. These four animations trace distinct states of being present, from the macro-systemic to the deeply personal, examining how our presence adapts, creates, merges, and sometimes fractures under the weight of constructed worlds.
