Executive Dysfunction
My concept behind this was showcasing executive dysfunction by visual means. The feeling as I have felt it feels like the desire to complete any task, but being physically unable to make yourself complete it. The specifics of this is the internal perception that whatever task has too much effort needed for the result, therefore the psyche decides that it's not worth it, resulting in not doing it.
I staged my bathroom and sat in the tub, as with taking a bath, there are several steps involved in getting out of the water specifically, which listing them out, can be perceived as a lot to do (eg, get out of water, dry off, put on shirt, but on underwear, put on shorts, etc). I'm only sitting in the water because it's easier to do nothing, which I have felt before when experiencing executive dysfunction.
Part of the staging involves objects to imply something unfinished or to be done (painting, vacuuming, laundry). I intended having myself be in water with clothes on to relate to the aforementioned ease of just sitting in the bath, and the nebula floor to suggest the infinite number of things to do and how sometimes it seems endless.
