BIO
I interrogate the authority of the physical perception as the universal trigger to exploit in society by proving the existence of "the future family," a mythical concept that I took the role of the mother. My virtual family gains physicality through images, sculptures, furniture, books, and digital works, which I regard as prints. The prints are simulacra of the future family.
I suggest the intense fractions of the social issue are based on overtrusted reproductivity of print media. Alongside the development of civilization, printed matter gained its credibility based on the ability that exact messages can exist over time and space and share them throughout the world. Advanced technology and networks nowadays liberate the power of the reproduction of data. Everyone can create new information, and it spreads globally in a second. The information in our times lost its credibility, and the individual's beliefs became the fact with homemade evidence. We live in a time where everybody is correct, but the others are wrong.
Every creature begins by printing the DNA of its ancestors. It is impossible to blame humans for blind faith in prints because they share the same trajectory of existence caused by the libido or the urge to be understood.
