Robotic Meditation (Ipad, English Stereo 6:05, 121x74x39 cm car seat and wrought iron meditation chair)

No thoughts in my mind, no feelings in my heart (Red Neon Tube installation, 69x146 cm)

Robotic Meditation is an installation that explores the paradox between emotional detachment and cognitive perfection. The intense red glow of the neon lights, combined with texts declaring the absence of thought and feeling, reinforces a sense of emptiness. A mechanical voice emanating from an iPad delivers a meditative yet emotionless directive, urging the audience to abandon binary thinking and attain robotic perfection. The sterile, mechanical tone contrasts with the deep human struggle between control and surrender, questioning how thought and emotion become standardized and how individuals, under the constant pressure of self-optimization, gradually become more mechanical.
