CYBERGHOSTS: Digital Footprint
Within the theme of Cyber Ghosts, I decided to explore the concept of a digital footprint. Something that has, undoubtably, haunted a non-insignificant amount of internet users.
A footprint is a physical object (or, record,) turned into an intangible concept, the “digital footprint”. With embroidery being a physical craft, I was interested in the translation of a physical object into a digital idea back into a physical art form.
The series of footprints grow more distorted as their outline solidifies. As one continues to spend time on the internet, something in the shape of a person begins to take form. But this shape, this form, this person, is it you? If not, who is it?
How would you visualize the creation of your digital footprint? How deep is your foot in the sand?
