The final episode of act 1 returns to the architecture of the art world—not as neutral backdrop but as operating system. Museums, foundations, biennials—they don’t just exhibit images, they produce them. Images arrive layered: palimpsests of prior shows, brands, captions, walls. Representation is no longer origin—it’s a recursion. Here, dysfunction becomes method. The image fails to cohere. The frame wobbles. The work refuses to align with institutional legibility. It glitches against clarity. This is not breakdown—it’s strategy. A refusal to play seamlessly within the spatial ideologies of contemporary cultural display.
