  "stage_context": "A conceptual photography studio space completely detached from reality, where the background is compressed into a single color field to eliminate time and location",

  },
  "failure_modes": [
    "The container no longer appears cheap and temporary but high-end",
    "The power relationship becomes implicit or disappears",
    "The subject is portrayed as actively choosing to be contained",
    "The image shifts towards fantasy or decorative expression instead of realistic substitution",
    "Humans and goldfish are no longer on the same level of survival logic"
  ]
