Soft Constraints

Soft constraints is a speculative study of materiality, where organic plasticity collides with technical precision. Inflated, bodily volumes are held in place by rigid mounting systems, capturing a staged moment between touch, pressure, and support.

Where softness meets tension, and matter mimics thought.

In soft constraints, flesh-like, glossy textures in violet and cyan interact with surgical-looking metal rigs. These hyperreal forms, wollen, melting, ambiguous, suggest organic matter without clear function. Their digital tactility is unsettling: too soft for machinery, too artificial for nature.

The setup resembles an absurd laboratory scene. A studio stand becomes the sculptural axis; clamps and glass panels orchestrate a choreography of balance. The soft bodies lean, touch, resist, searching for the right distance, negotiating intimacy and autonomy.

Set within a sterile gallery context, complete with wall text and fallen objects, the arrangement unfolds as controlled chaos: technical precision confronting shapeless resistance, plastic intuition facing staged stability. Soft constraints imagines a logic of gentle limitation, between support and obstruction, display and performance.
