This art piece is a wearable structure inspired by the details of a spacesuit's survival equipment, and functions as a protective device that wraps around a part of the body, as well as a visual device.
The white fabric reminiscent of bulletproof nylon, metal parts, fixed straps, and cable structures visualize the keywords of survival, communication, and connection, and each part is also separated into a functional object.
It can be read as an artificial shell created by humans to protect themselves in an environment outside of reality, or as another outer layer that extends the body.
