The work does not exist in a physical sense, thus questioning the concept of "space" and "identity" in the wake of digital progress. It echoes in an ideal utopian landscape, where you can traverse land and water unimpeded by limits or boundaries.

However, if you pay close attention, these boxes will show close-to-imperceptible irregularities and minuscule flaws within its components…
