“Work. Sleep. Repeat.” examines the everyday realities and behaviour of Japanese salarymen, presenting their routines through diverse media. The exhibition reveals a world shaped by long hours, corporate conformity and a devotion to work. A persistent sense of exhaustion and repetition emerges, exposing a culture where routine becomes identity.
This piece shows the physical and emotional exhaustion caused by Japan’s work culture and the impact of devoting your entire life to your job.
