Artist Statement

Texts, emails, voicemails, social chats, and other digital messages inundate me daily, blurring the line between “in real life” (IRL) and virtual connections. Technologies proclaiming to connect frequently leave me feeling isolated and overwhelmed. Waiting for Your Response blends recorded and live communications by projecting fragments of unanswered digital communications over physical “return to sender” letters and mixing voice recordings with live feedback. My work underscores the unfulfilled longing for intimacy that digital culture amplifies. I aim to create spaces where viewers can reflect on the quality of their communications and consider intentional, authentic ways to connect in an increasingly mixed reality world.
