Set in future Mongolia, the last bastion of natural resources in an era of AI and climate change, this video revisits the protagonist from 'No 2. Father Sky.' A lowly miner exchanges her labor and natural resources for water—the era's currency—to sustain her village. Her diminishing returns echo historical patterns that have shaped civilizations for millennia. This narrative draws parallels to Mongolia's current resource struggles and the 16th-17th century Price Revolution in Europe, exploring timeless themes of wealth disparity and resource valuation.

Coat: The featured coat, designed by Khat, handcrafted in Mongolia with 100% local wool with traditional buttons and collar, symbolizes the character's evolution towards rebellion against exploitation.

Shoes: The feature shoes are part of an upcoming collection of three pairs of bespoke shoes designed by Kyle, who has exclusively worn his handcrafted footwear for over a decade. Evolving from his early leather designs, these examples demonstrate innovation through waterproof, breathable 4-way stretch knit fabric atop 3D printed TPU foam soles.
