A laser-engraved marble slab mounted on a server rack bears screenshots tracing Kim Kardashian's transformation from the non-consensual circulation of intimate images to a global economy of visibility and value. The work examines the ambivalence between victimization and appropriation: public exposure that initially functioned as humiliation and commodification simultaneously became the condition for a new form of media and economic agency.
