Billionaires

“Billionaires” explores the dynamics of power and influence in the art world through the analysis of social networks connecting billionaires and cultural institutions. By examining data and visualizing the relationships between these wealthy individuals, the work offers a deep insight into the mechanisms behind wealth accumulation and economic influence in contemporary society.

The piece takes the form of a complex visualization, where nodes and connections represent individuals and their economic, familial, or institutional relationships. By depicting the interconnections between people and powerful institutions, and using data from public sources along with algorithmic analysis, the project constructs a map of relationships that highlights how wealth is often concentrated in closed, interdependent networks. This visual experience provides an accessible yet thought-provoking entry point for understanding the forces that shape our society.

Billionaires is a critical investigation into global economic power structures, offering a tool to understand the networks that influence the distribution of wealth worldwide.
