Better Life Round Table (2021) is an experimental combination of a one-day exhibition and public discussion program.
This project emerged from the interviews with the five people who dreamed of “a better life” through consumption and goods. The scripted videos projected on large screens, passed into the next page by the viewer's hand, place the viewer somewhere between an omniscient analyst and a first-person reader.

The public program was closely connected to the exhibition. Eight participants were asked about one’s attitude and impression about the interviews presented in the exhibition. Furthermore, we talked about our own relevant experiences with the keywords extracted from interviews.
I intended to create an open forum where people could share their appreciation of, and link the critical questions presented at the exhibition, to one’s own stories.
