MODERN EXHAUSTION
MODERN EXHAUSTION
Modern Exhaustion is a 9x12 linoleum monochromatic print. This piece is a response to how social media and having the world at our fingertips has drained and damaged modern-day society: You see a deranged and blue young woman taking a mirror selfie with hearts floating out of her phone. She is in a skeletal-like state as if something has pulled everything out of her, yet she is still posing for the camera, prioritizing a false sense of attention over her mental and physical health.
I loved working on this piece and learned so much along the way: This print has many hidden details that bring its message together while keeping it open for interpretation. So go ahead and look at it & I'd love to hear what you think about it.
