Untitled (fragmented media)
This series of works has been developed to engage the viewer in decoding media information. Technical decisions have been made in response to emotional triggers embodied in the artworks. The intention is to comment on the ways we use language across social media, underlying or obvious, conscious or automatic. The work is also concerned with ideas relating to mental health, and the social functions that can be implicated or connected around communication. The physical representations of the prints are separated into different styles, motifs, colours, material and language, to push the anxiety of information as a whole.
