The scarf was created as part of the conceptual project SUBFEAR.
SUBFEAR is an elite attraction club where the familiar logic of a casino takes on a new meaning. Here, money isn’t bet; each player risks their own courage by confronting what they fear the most. Fear becomes the wager, risk becomes the entertainment, and the chance to break free from one’s own limitations becomes the most desired prize.
The funnels and warped chess lines symbolize the seductive pull of fear, which gradually draws a person into an endless game. Geometric patterns spiral into optical traps, creating a sensation of losing control and the impossibility of escape. This is a metaphor for gambling addiction: a person dives into the thrill, hoping for a win, but with every new move, they find themselves deeper within the system. The funnel becomes a symbol of a vicious cycle, where the desire to win transforms into dependency, and the game becomes a trap.
