Do you know how much pressure you're under? While physical pressure can be measured, social and internal pressures often remain invisible. Constant distraction and digital escapism cause us to lose touch with our own limits. STRAIN is a tool that brings the pressures of everyday life onto a visual, tangible, and experiential level. In a brutal way, STRAIN confronts participants with the pressure we have long accepted as normal. It reveals how close we may already be to our personal limits and raises the question of whether the critical point has perhaps already been reached.
