Exogenic is an abstract video composition that utilizes a mixture of symbolism and surrealist imagery to address our relationship with the seductive worlds of luxury that fill our social media feeds.

The eternal promise of a beautiful life, triggered in the video by the ambiguous symbol of the diamond or the flower, influences our perception of ourselves and others, as well as the way we construct our identities in relation to personalized advertising and socially mediated consumption.

The symbols of luxury, consumption, and perception addressed in Exogenic can be beautifully contextualized within the former cinema, now the Cultural House Royal. This creates an engagement with the space that challenges a dialogue between observation and observers.
