For the brief, the artist explored themes of mental health, perception and privacy (or lack thereof) in a society that always seems to be watching its people. The challenges of trying to accurately see while also being seen. The pressure of being perceived without control distorts the eyes creating a buffering error, glitching and moving while also stuck frozen in one place.
