Whether you believe that art imitates life or that life imitates art (or both), there's one thing we can all agree on—the advent of the Internet has changed the process of our daily life, of our identities, as well of art-making itself in terms of how they relate to digital culture that calls our attention to the circulation of icons across time and media, from the distant past to the present day to religious icons and digital culture, where our identity is drowned from the self made online celebrities and lost in the Instagram posts merged within other plastic faces while they are desperately scrolling their life away. Like the grid portraits the identity is lost since everyone are copying each other, everyone looks the same and yet everyone is happy & famous in their own universe; hence the warm, shiny lines and particles that are symbols for their own universe as well as a virtual reality as a “promising world”. Speaking to the instability of the world, technological disappointments, and the wonderful possibilities of life scored by picks up where the techie idealism of “Psychedelic” left off, resurfacing this time at a “Kiss” with a timely commentary on artificial intelligence, digital advances, and the arguably disappointing reality that was once a promising, fully-automated future Furthermore in the grid series I tap into robotic aesthetic so I can illustrate that our increased dependence on technology costs us a piece of our humanity. I often cautioned against human connection getting lost amid the myriad distractions of an increasingly complex society. The paradox of cyberspace is that it simultaneously connects and isolate us.
