Triangle is a participatory work, an interactive installation with game instructions exploring group dynamics, reflecting the coexistence of harmony and conflict in real-life interactions. The work establishes a constant equilibrium between unity and division, with three players converging at the center while simultaneously competing against each other. Using elements like a three-cornered checker objective, a traffic light mechanism, and remote controls, players exert control over one another, either intentionally or unintentionally, demonstrating the delicate balance of power. In this game, the path to victory is paradoxically achieved by withdrawing from the perpetual cycle of control.
