Corporate Bleach

The saturated pink light consumes the space. ‘Corporate Bleach,’ weaponises the colonial structure of social saturation to narrow and control our collective sense of reality, a form of subtle yet strategic violence.

You step into the pink room, you think you are in control, but the pink room doesn't change, you do. Drowning in colonial legacies we begin to accept what we see as the only truth, unable to imagine other possibilities.

Leave the room and the room leaves with you. The residue of the colonised/ing space is imprinted into our own physiology, bleaching our eyes to see the world through the absence of the colonised space and not the reality of the sky, sea and sunlight.

The bleach fades away. In this moment we can recognise how the saturated space has shaped us, how the colony has shaped us.

Set against the backdrop of the public waterfront, Corporate Bleach highlights the tension between private corporate space and the dwindling public realm, offering a timely reflection on how colonial legacies and corporate power infiltrate our lives. This living metaphor forces the viewer to confront the residue left by these systems—how deeply they have imprinted on our physiology and perception—and challenges us to ask: Do we continue to exist in these spaces that bleach our vision, or do we seek other truths and possibilities for living in the world?
