The concept of “social atomization" describes the state of social life in which people are grouped around a certain core, with a tight structure within the group, loose relations between the groups and isolation between individuals outside the group.

​

Our movements are largely influenced by the space within sight rather than the space behind us.

How to shape and experience these unknown spaces by people’s movement and behavior?
Can we shape these spaces by breaking and establishing potential connections between people?

​

The project tells the story in the context of an 'atomised society’, presenting the intangible relationships and unknown spaces within and between atoms, inspiring the breaking down of existing strong and stable relationships and the construction of alienated connections, which re-activates a relatively fragmented system and exploring the underlying possibilities of movement, relationships and spaces.
