Project

The “Internet humans: A selfie of the internet” project came out of my curiosity to explore a distorted mirror-reflection of combined social-media users performing through face-filters on social platforms. I wanted to see the results of all these faces, textures, colors and forms. The work generates contemporary public self-portraiture that uses instagram, snapchat, and facebook filters. I believe we are the protagonists in our accounts and we become performers everytime we wear a filter.
