“What happens when the essentials of life—our bread, our currency, our homes—begin to erode under the weight of crisis? The works in this exhibition are born from a context of economic collapse, corruption, conflict, and war, where the staples of existence become casualties of systemic decay.
Bread and home, like money, hold symbolic and practical value. So when they decay—through devaluation, inflation, infestation, displacement, or destruction—heir currency diminishes in the sense that they can no longer serve their purpose: bread as sustenance, money as value, home as security.
This exhibition is not merely about loss, or decay. It is about value, or currency: how we assign it, protect it, and lose it. Through devaluation, both economic and existential, it challenges us to reexamine our dependence on symbols of stability, revealing the profound connections that persist even when our foundations crumble.”
