Genny Sian
Welcome to Airstrip One, 2024
Inspired by George Orwell’s ‘1984,’ Edward Hopper’s portrayal of alienation, and the aesthetics of cyberpunk culture, my project aims to represent the solitude, isolation, and existential disconnection experienced by individuals within towering urban landscapes. Just as Orwell’s dystopian vision depicted the oppressive control of the Party in Airstrip One, this project examines the subtle yet pervasive forces contributing to the alienation of modern citizens. In a capitalist-dominated society, individualist values overshadow community, entangling us in consumerism, manipulation, and surveillance. Through visual storytelling, I express personal reflections on society, offering insight into our contemporary reality.
