The multi-channel audiovisual installation "Can Do More! Must Do More!" (2019-2024), problematizes the phenomenon of capitalist society and its internal relations, questioning the justification of labour and its results, as well as the absurdity of hyperproduction, as one of the determinants of capitalist society. His actions are carried out in locations where the infrastructure is in a stage of disintegration, and vegetation flourishes and breaks through at the borders or points of contact in the complicated relationship between nature, humanity, and technology. The problem of the relationship of system over life within the neoliberal society of political control is observed through experiment, parody, and allusion.
