The concept of shelter, in its broad and pluralistic sense, serves as a creative motif that captivates artists, and the seashell inherently embodies such a natural form of refuge. This exhibition invites the audience to step on and crumble the shells, thereby experiencing the fragility of protective structures and the assertion of self-agency in the act of destruction. Through tangible interaction, visitors will engage with the tactile sensation of fragmentation, the auditory resonance of breakage, and ultimately contemplate the vulnerability of protective shells—that is, the delicate nature of sanctuary itself.
