Inflated Boundaries explores the tension between control and resistance through bold visual contrasts and material metaphors. It contrasts industrial rigidity with organic expansion, symbolizing bodies, identities, and emotions under pressure. Inflated forms represent internal forces pushing against external limits, while vibrant colours express joyful defiance. The concept highlights the mix of tough, manufactured materials and soft, hand-crafted textures, reflecting vulnerability, care, and resilience. Colour here is not just decoration but a powerful language of protest and affirmation. It breaks through boundaries with emotional strength, celebrating identity, agency, and the human desire to grow beyond limits.
