as a Co-Director for Synapse Arts
loss of id
copycats is not a proclamation but an unfinished sketch—an interactive performative statement that exposes the absurdity of belonging in hyper-individualized societies.
Through digital fashion, body language, and the aesthetics of disposability, the work disorients: like looking for yourself in others and finding only echoes.
It asks: If we are contradictions, what now?
It reclaims joy within monotony, critiques identity as replication, and embraces the radical shifts of emotionality that define our contemporary existence.

COPYCATS IS A
street performance and digital campaign that stages the absurd erosion of individuality in our hyper-digital, globalized culture—where belonging often means disappearing into sameness.
