‘The Digital Mask’ explores the theme of deep fake technology and its impact on society. The figures in the artwork are rendered in a dark, almost ominous tone, hinting at the potential dangers of this technology.
The large cubed-computer structure appears to be reproducing the main figure and it serves as a symbol of the power and reach of deep fakes, as well as the potential for them to be used for nefarious purposes.
The composition of The Digital Mask provides you with the role of observer, close, but not quite within reach to stop it. It commands your attention and persuades you to consider the role it plays in shaping our understanding of truth & authenticity in the digital age.
