Commute explores the psychological experience of moving through a space that is never fully trusted.
Set within the Cape Town commuter rail system, the work observes shared public space as a moving condition of uncertainty — shaped by vigilance, fatigue, behavioural tension, and existential unease.
Figures appear suspended within environments marked by repetition, exposure, suspicion, and the low-grade pressure of everyday survival.
Beneath the banality of the daily commute lies an atmosphere of dread, vulnerability, and psychological compression.
