Translating the dynamics of verbal exchange through abstraction
The complex psychological and sociological impacts of verbal exchange often result in an imperceptible form of mental domination. My work explores social hierarchies created by aforementioned power dynamics of conversation. It enables the defamiliarization of intangible energies that surround the nature of informal human conversation on a day-to-day basis. The translation from the verbal to its visualisation reflects the idea of changed perceptions due to manipulation. A sense of empowerment arises from delving into the hidden intricacies of communication through language. It further explores repetition, patterns of silence and pauses along with the hierarchical constructs existing in the modes of socialization today that make mental dominance easily achievable.
