The compass is a kind of provocation. It emerged from philosophical reflections on authenticity, truth, and the purpose of human actions. It demonstrates, through a journey into the abyss of absurdity, human tendencies to produce an uncountable number of things that are supposed to facilitate various activities. In the whirlwind of life, consumerist trends, and the relentless pursuit of simpler solutions, humans lose a certain essence. The experience of drawing a circle through an absolutely complicating object aims to highlight the value of human skills, showcase the importance of artistic talents, drawing abilities, and all forms of creativity, but not only that. It places humans in front of a tool, in front of development, in front of a machine. It aims to show the value of humans and prompt reflection.
