Description
The title of the work, and of the whole series, reminds me of struggle—a life full of hard, dull routine. A bland kind of life where the TV is turned up just so “something is playing in the house,” or lemon is added to water just to give it some taste.
Process
A life without purpose has always been my deepest fear — a fear of falling into emptiness and routine and living without meaning. By creating works that circle around this kind of life, I try to confront my own fear of meaninglessness, while also asking myself, even more deeply, whether meaning exists at all. I use humor and a sense of absurdity not to escape the weight of these questions, but to survive them.
Tools
A simple MidJourney prompt combining only images, depicting faces that reflect sadness, a sense of being lost, and distortion mixed with suburban landscapes. Many of them I had previously created using other AI tools, such as Stable Diffusion.
