"The Rise" shows the uncanny, the unforeseen, which lurks directly under the glossy surface of the modern environment. Moments in which the fragility of the layer of civilization is noticeable. We wanted to focus on the complex relationship between the visual language of a building, its psychological effects and the political-economic reality in which it functions.
