Apocalyptic is a densely layered narrative that draws from personal, political, and planetary unease. Using a salvaged ornate frame as scaffold, the piece embeds a mix of vintage imagery, propaganda-style graphics, toy blocks, industrial tools, and repurposed ephemera. Fragments of a crumbling climate, eroded rights, and labor exhaustion are interwoven, echoing the dissonant churn of contemporary life. The viewer is invited to examine each pocket of meaning as both a warning and a relic.
