STILL LOCK IN
POV: No Days Off.

What happens when you leave the office… but the work never leaves you?

“Still Lock In” explores the tension between productivity and rest in today’s hustle-driven culture. Set in a football field, a space meant for freedom and play, the series challenges the illusion of escape. Through the use of office props, structured poses, and controlled compositions, the images portray individuals who are physically outside of work, yet mentally still locked in.

Laptops, documents, phones, and scattered paperwork become more than objects, they act as symbols of pressure, expectations, and the inability to disconnect. Even in open space, the boundaries of work persist.

This series questions:Is true rest still possible, or are we always on duty?
