DIRECTORS WHO EXPLORE THIS
Bong Joon-ho → South Korea

His films like 'Parasite' and 'Snowpiercer' explore class and spatial hierarchies through architecture and vertical geography, where physical space embodies social inequality.

Yorgos Lanthimos → Greece

His surreal works such as 'The Killing of a Sacred Deer' and 'Poor Things' obsessively play with scale, proportion, and body horror to unsettle viewer perception.

David Lynch → United States

His films and TV work use extreme close-ups and vast empty spaces to create disorientation, with 'Eraserhead' and 'Twin Peaks' making the viewer acutely aware of scale and proportion.
