Topology of Mourning is a portrayal of a ritual that taps into the spirits of those who have suffered under an oppressive economic system marred by exploitation and social divisions. The depiction showcases fingers encased in a clay shell, a symbol of both protection and self-restraint. This video contemplates the outdated societal structures perpetuating class divides, leading to an increasing sense of alienation and disparity among individuals from diverse backgrounds. It evokes a sense of mourning for the casualties of this system, emphasizing the importance of addressing the deep-rooted issues that continue to perpetuate inequality. Through this visual narrative, I invite the viewer to reflect on the negative impact of political systems on our lives.
