Artist Statement:
Six people from around the world working through the online platform Odesk were employed to meet with the artist on Skype to create a digital rendering of their physical workspaces. The piece uses the collected screen captured footage of these encounters to explore the potential for sensing and capturing the presence of others through layers of digitization. The work asks how today’s communication technologies challenge our sense of presence, as more and more day-to-day interactions are absent of physical bodies and spaces.
