Untitled 1 (The City Through Filtered Eyes)

Framed by oversized black spectacles, the city is presented as a mediated experience—two windows of polished urban spectacle hovering over a faintly drafted metropolis below, as if reality is being edited in real time. The cool, vaporous blue ground suggests distance and amnesia, while the twin red, circuit-like orbs in each lens inject a pulsing technological consciousness, turning the skyline into something scanned, catalogued, and slightly surveilled. This contrast between crisp, photographic towers and skeletal linework creates a hierarchy of perception: what we “see” is curated and intensified, while the broader city dissolves into a blueprint of systems and routines. The work reads as a quiet critique of modern vision—where progress is dazzling, yet filtered through devices that tint desire, control, and belonging.
