Story

Most of the things we do and touch rely on an electronic core.
Our daily life is “contaminated” by a constant digital presence that is overwhelming our consciousness of being emotional creatures.
I have created this little creatures to emphasize the relation between “poetry of life” and “technology pollution”.
I chose insects because they represent a clear stereotype in our mind and now suddenly becomes a tangible presence of something else.
So many meanings could be found here, from the allegory to the big-brother lurking in our lives to the electronic waste is polluting the planet.
My intention is not to give an answer.
I aim to create visual situations that provoke an emotion towards what is invisible and leave the observer build dreams or fear.
I would love to know any single story and I would love to investigate further this relationship between progress and “poetry of life”.

Welcome in this little world where sometimes “they” start to explore our environment...
