"MODEL 35737" explores what it means to appear in a successful operating system but internally function as a deconstructed broken circuit. Through extreme physicality and risk, we created a world that challenges ideas of grandiosity. We researched themes of neglect, getting hurt by providing aid, being forcefully pulled into a system, and a desire to be understood. The carpet symbolizes the functionality seen from the outside while shedding aspects of destruction within. Ultimately, what it defines is left for the audience to discover.
