ICON XXI | 2014-Present | Digital Drawings. Archival Pigment Ink on German Etching Paper | 14" x 14"
The ongoing series – ICON XXI – aim to visually encapsulate contemporary experiences and occurrences facing humanity in the 21st Century. The images employ techniques of universal graphic icons and symbols, to be clearly understood across cultures, as well as offer a visual, nonverbal historical archive. They also serve as a commentary on the ubiquitous presence of computerization and the mass-produced digital design aesthetic in our daily lives. All of which affect the degree to which people perceive each other and interact with one another.
