Withdrawal is part of Suspension, an interdisciplinary photographic and installation-based project combining large-scale photography, textile sculptural forms, and a spatialized audio environment examining institutional and infrastructural systems encountered in states of latent activity, instability, and deferred function.

This work examines how authority, value, and presence are destabilized through context, approached through a restrained observational register. An image associated with power is placed within a utilitarian storage space, where it becomes incidental; one object among many, subject to the same conditions of handling and neglect.

Presented alongside suspended sculptural forms and atmospheric audio, the work contributes to an examination of systems of governance and institutional order encountered in states of instability and withdrawal.
