In economic terms, Q3 typically refers to the third quarter of the fiscal or financial year, spanning July, August, and September. It’s a checkpoint — not quite the end, but a moment to assess, reflect, and prepare for what’s to come. It’s a time for reporting, re-evaluating, and re-strategizing — a pause before the finale.
Q3 evokes bureaucracy, professionalism, and optimization, but in its shadow lies a looming sense of anxiety and unease. The gates are closing. The body is still, but there is still life under the overpass.
Offering a surreal cocktail of brawls, shots, shadows, pixies, pixels, girls, gremlins, yogis, business deals, actors, horses, hooligans and a puppy. Q3 serves up a crude account of the current state of affairs and conjures up a frightening premonition of what could spur if business continues to carry on as usual.
There’s something sinister in the air.
The bass pulses low. The clock ticks.
A dissonant chord is expected to resolve.
Like a beat that’s just too fast in a song that’s just too loud — agitating and disorienting — the visuals worm their way through the psyche. The works reflect our screen-addled, overstimulated moment. Symbols flicker like road signs in a dark tunnel. There’s a forgotten mysticism here — a ritual quality to art that’s resurfacing from the underground.
