ABSTRACT
This thesis documents the survival modes formed under , creative forms that emerge not by choice, but as a result of being pushed to the edges of a system that leaves little room to breathe.

In a world where information movestoo quickly, technology keeps feeding us more knowledge than we can hold, and capitalism demands constant digestion. Every answer understood one moment can be overturned the next. Thoughts are interrupted by new inputs, leaving us endlessly piecing together while trying to survive inside a field of confusion and unease.

As human beings, we try to slow down, to grow quietly, to return to ourselves. But the system erodes us bit by bit, until what remains is a minimized, sometimes nearly zero, version of staying true to ourselves.

The fragments, breaks, interruptions, hiding, and withdrawal that I leave behind are survival strategies forced into existence by this time. is no longer growth; it is the waste after staying alive inside a structure that does not allow breathing. These materials are not uplifting, yet they offer a real form of , a way to keep from being swallowed whole.
