Struggle
by Elizaveta Korzhneva

The project explores the idea of societal conformity and the struggle for individuality within a collective. The fight for a place in society represents a common human desire to fit in or achieve success, and this collective battle results in a shared light, symbolizing a collective salvation or unity through struggle ✨👀

The object itself is a beautiful ceramic lamp made up of small human silhouettes, meticulously handcrafted by the author.
