Description:
Silicone Love is a series of projects focused on an object-oriented story: a ghost figure emerged from the infrastructure of social media. It is a metaphoric figure created to explore the post-Internet aesthetic.
In this project, I inserted video-looping screens into a series of stretchy hanging sculptures, which signifies a scattered human body. All the videos are screen recorded from instagram (a social media app.) I reedited them and looped different section in each tablet screen.
