Zikry, through the recurring figure of Alex, stages an existential slapstick—a mundane yet profound choreography of being. Alex, an “ordinary” character navigating surreal environments, embodies the absurdity of everyday life and the silent burden of simply existing. In contrast, Dabi presents speculative, dreamlike scenes where humans, nature, and objects intersect. His surreal visual language critiques human exceptionalism, portraying people as tiny, almost insect-like, overwhelmed by their own creations.
