Crumbles (2025)
Bachelor Thesis
Self published, bound at Gerrit Rietveld Academie.
Graphic design by Loren Xu
Supervised by Abla Elbahrawy
As described by Abla:
"Crumbles" is a journey across altitudes and landscapes touching upon our human nature, expectations and desires. It carries our contradictions that are difficult to place and to swallow, articulating them in precise theoretical reasoning, like analysing the principle of lesser evil from the lens of suspension of disbelief.
Sara developed a theatrically scripted dialogue around actual field visits, to enter specific scenic views and question them. The urgency of ecological disaster and our exploitative interference with nature contextualises our desires as a coping mechanism with a certain sense of loss. And a reminder of our ancient relationship with a natural environment that both embraces us and lures us to own it.
"Crumbles" proposes that our predative nature might be intertwined with our fulfilment of desire for beauty. But if the sublime is all about the moment and the context, when every landscape is extracted or displaced, what actually remains?
