Class Division
What does power really look like—and who gets to claim it? In Class Division , a chiseled figure lifts dumbbells beneath the banner “Elite Power Gym Center,” but this isn’t a celebration of strength. It’s a critique of aspiration shaped by exclusion . Behind the glamour, a construction worker hangs lifeless in the background— builder of the structure, denied its benefits . Grids, tubes, and scaffolds snake across the image, not as decoration, but as systems—of control, of surveillance, of economic entrapment. That screaming face on the right? It’s not just horror—it’s the sound of being unseen. Does strength lie in muscle, or in survival? Is visibility the same as value? Carved in block print, every raw line resists polish, mirroring the imbalance the work exposes. Class Division doesn’t just depict inequality—it asks us to confront it. Who gets access, who gets erased—and why do we still call that power?
