In this series, J.LEI's process revolves around the obsessive repetition of small, rounded forms—shapes that gather, cluster, and press against one another until no space remains. The surface becomes a dense field, without pause, without breath.

​

These forms, at once organic and ambiguous, recall a multitude of eyes: insistent, watchful, almost perverse in their vigilance. They generate a sense of being constantly scrutinized, of living under an unrelenting gaze. Within this visual rhythm, individuality disappears; each unit dissolves into the mass, compelled to follow, to conform, to encircle. The accumulation becomes both shield and prison.

​

Through this suffocating density, I question the structures that govern us—the social systems, the collective forces that can at once hold us together and confine us. The work oscillates between fascination and unease, echoing the tension of belonging and the desire to break free.
