Glance explores the tension between modern life and the natural world, reflecting on how digital oversaturation and consumerism have disconnected us from authentic experiences.
Modernity has separated us from the pure and authentic world that exists around us - I often imagine what it would feel like to be part of natural reality again - and I wonder, would I even be able to break away from my modern commodified lifestyle? Through this generative artwork I am trying to understand my place in the world, and if I can learn to appreciate moments of genuine emotion again.
All of the things that we consider necessary today, are they really that important? While I try to find my balance, the constant flux of news, sensations, and trends keeps me in a constant state of chaos.
