Original artwork description:

This work is interested in how images are viewed in the 21st Century, namely how the Internet has changed how we consume images.

Every day we are exposed to very profound and very trivial images often placed next to each other; sometimes an image can be deeply affecting and fascinating, then we scroll past it and everything is fine again.

Materials used:

Oil Paint
