This looping piece places the influences of Marshall McLuhan and Barbara Kruger onto the idea of the internet self: how is the self’s authenticity multiplied and divided across our digital realities? The flickering, static image represents the inherent strife between reality and simulation.
The medium, digital photography, suspends the viewer in this constructed world while reflecting the sensationalist, entertaining advertisement of the self by removing the eyes of the subject and replacing them with the eyes of the viewer.
