Artist Statement:
In the fast-pace immaterial realm of cyberspace, one often neither have the time to reflect upon the impact of new technologies on power relations, nor the space to consider the ethical implications of our actions on virtual objects (notions of responsibility). This work seeks to create an interactive context within which one’s ethical stance towards violence becomes problematized by the presentation of seemingly ‘virtual bodies’ of ‘real people’.
