Prepared Box emerges from the act of wandering—a contemporary echo of the nineteenth-century flâneur. It begins with a simple walk through the nearby park, a gesture that opens space for what is immediate and familiar, yet profoundly meaningful. The project unfolds as a quiet exploration of places, objects, relationships, and memories that shape a personal landscape of identity and affection.
Rejecting the spectacle of the exotic, it turns its gaze toward what lies close: the overlooked, the intimate, the ordinary. Through this slow and attentive movement, the work proposes another rhythm, one that resists the urgency of the present and reclaims the act of looking as a form of care.
It draws from the physical impulse of working with one’s hands, from the traces of craft and learning passed down through generations.
