Descrizione Opera / Biografia
We live in age of constant turmoil. Negative news flows from every corner of our lives - from social networks to various news outlets. It is impossible to live a single day without hearing about another catastrophe, war conflict, deadly virus, natural disaster, economical crash or many other things. Trying to cope with this we use various different means, including alcohol and medications. But result is unnatural state of so called ”happiness” and ”positivity”. Through this uncanny, forced smile and bloodshot eyes I wanted to show how toxic and fragile state this is. A mask of hollow happiness. My work explores the struggle of the modern human, performing sanity while trapped in a digital cage of constant chaos.
