While you are outside, you are not safe. The emptiness around you becomes suffocating—it constricts, it chokes the air. There is nowhere to hide from it, and it is too far to run, but you must gather your resolve and get home.
The project explores the perception of the urban environment through the fear of open spaces and anxiety associated with agoraphobia. At a certain point, the familiar city becomes alien and deceptive—streets, buildings, and empty intersections lose their neutrality, beginning to seem dangerous, oppressive, and unreal, as if the space itself harbors a threat and desires to cause harm.
This is an attempt to capture the state where the surrounding world ceases to feel real, and the sole desire becomes a return home—a place where one can feel safe again.
