My Panopticon is a landscape of accumulation, where the waste of humanity gathers: discarded objects, forgotten bundles, and relics still carrying the weight of the destinies they once served. It is a dump of hopes, passions, and residues left behind by a species that is at once creative and voracious. In this space, memory itself becomes ballast, poison, and debris.

​

As Agent Smith says in The Matrix, we are a virus: a swarm moving blindly, mesmerized by the noise of its own consumption. Within this vision, lines from Samuel Taylor Coleridge’s The Rime of the Ancient Mariner return as an obsessive chant, marking a descent toward both the abyss and the origin of our civilization. We failed to outgrow our technological adolescence, and culture, which was meant to redeem us, revealed itself instead as the Trojan horse of our animal nature.
