Interactive Exhibition
This interactive exhibition project examines how ideologically shaped the mind can be. Situated between autonomy and conformity, the work asks how independently people form their views, how strongly they adapt to collective expectations, and at what point thinking becomes readable within existing social and ideological patterns. Through a questionnaire-based interaction, participants respond to statements using sliders. Their answers are translated into a generative dot-grid image, in which order, density and alignment suggest conformity, while distortions, gaps and irregularities point toward autonomy, contradiction and resistance to classification. The resulting image is printed as an individual card: a visual trace of each participant’s position within the tension between personal autonomy and ideological structure. Rather than offering a fixed diagnosis, the project creates a reflective encounter with the systems that shape how we think, belong and distinguish ourselves.
