Unreal Estate is a drawing series about homes you can never own — because they can’t exist. Stairways to nowhere, windows without rooms, the ghost territory of a cat long gone: these imagined structures refuse architectural logic and economic reality.

I started this series during a time when even modest housing felt out of reach. I once stayed in an Earthship — a building made of trash and vision. It was magical. But even now, I couldn’t build one where I live. There isn’t space. Even dreams need land. And land has a price tag. These drawings aren’t nostalgic. They’re refusals. They defy the logic of optimization, property, and permanence. In a world where AI grows more capable and housing grows more absurd, I’m defending the human capacity to imagine otherwise. Unreal Estate isn’t about what’s possible — it’s about what we lose when everything must make sense.
