Hypothetical Inhabitants is an ongoing exploration of the dynamics between the domestic and the wild, focusing on the resilience and adaptability of life forms in urban and natural environments. The project investigates organic networks, unseen connections, and territorial markings that exist beyond human delineations of land, offering alternative ways of sensing and interpreting landscapes. Rooted in the idea that life constantly adapts, inhabits, and transforms its surroundings, this work combines artificial and organic elements, painted surfaces, and found materials to examine notions of expansion, occupation, and habitation.

Instalacija Hipotetični prebivalci raziskuje dinamiko med udomačenim in divjim, s poudarkom na odpornosti in prilagodljivosti življenjskih oblik v urbanem in naravnem okolju. Raziskuje organske mreže, nevidne povezave in teritorialne vzorce, ki obstajajo onkraj človekovih razmejitev krajine, ter ponuja alternativne načine zaznavanja in interpretiranja krajin. Delo, ki temelji na ideji, da se življenje nenehno prilagaja, da naseljuje in preoblikuje svojo okolico, spaja umetne in organske elemente, poslikane površine in najdene materiale ter se tako poglablja v pojme ekspanzije, okupacije in prebivanja.
