One Blank Round considers how societies respond to moral uncertainty by revising procedures rather than questioning the systems that produce them. As one method of execution became increasingly untenable, public debate shifted toward alternative procedures rather than questioning capital punishment itself. Questions of retribution, innocence, state authority, and voluntary euthanasia continue to reflect conflicting ideas about justice, autonomy, and the value of human life.

Constructed as a temporary theatrical set, the installation stages an environment that is both approachable and unsettling. Walls of dyed pink canvas bags surround a solitary chair, softening the visual language without diminishing the gravity of the subject. The title references the practice of placing a blank cartridge among live rounds to obscure individual responsibility, asking how systems distribute responsibility across institutions and participants alike.

Rather than resolving these contradictions, One Blank Round asks whether responsibility can ever be transferred through procedure, or whether ethical responsibility ultimately remains personal.
