Trapped or Caught uses bold, colourful geometric structures as a metaphor for power and control in today’s world. The work takes visual inspiration from well-known buildings like the TRX Tower, which stands for development but is also linked to growing issues of corruption. The bright, crisscrossing bars show how promises of development can sometimes trap us instead of setting us free.
