WORK STATEMENT: "UNTITLED" digital (Photoshop), 8 x 10 inches, 2020
During these unprecedented times in the midst of a pandemic, we have been asked to isolate ourselves, avoid human contact and communicate remotely. These conditions have inspired the creation of my work for this COVID-19 themed exhibition. My digitally created piece depicts a futuristic dystopian world where lives are lived above and away from the dangers taking place below on the Earth's surface. In this fictitious environment, each family lives in a self sustaining atmospheric bubble.
