Statue Houses and Dystopian Environments

Svccy represents humans by statues either faceless or covered by objects to symbolise the total lack of identity in today’s world. Man lives in an inauthentic environment and follows inauthentic behavioral models oppressed by mass media, technology, and fashion.
Statue Houses

Traditional architectural elements are blended with futuristic visions to create a dreamlike environment. Futuristic houses emerge from the ground in vibrant colours, while giant classic statues appear next to them to make a surreal contrast, representing the illusion of free and self-determined life.
We believe we are living a free life and make free choices, while in reality we are all following a single model which is built for us by our ultra-consumerist society.
Dystopian Environments

Dystopian Environments showcase today’s human society as series of faceless statues or covered by everyday objects, such as mobile phone to symbolise lack of identity. The statues often depicted in a ruined environment wearing game consoles covering the eyes and ears. This represents how members of society try to escape from reality to the digital world – an illusion – where everything seems better.
