The title (x, y, z) references coordinates that seemingly take one to a single point on Earth. However, terrestrial coordinates normally correspond to latitudes and longitudes while (x, y, z) is a deceptive reference to the Euclidean plane. This is reflective of the illusory essence of the piece.
(x, y, z) began as simple photos of my everyday life in Seoul - sunsets, trees, books. While rooted in these tangible elements, my piece draws the viewer into a virtual, surreal world, reflecting the in-between condition of humanity. Hints of nature and ecology provide the undertones of this new world, through mountainous forms, growth, water, and erosion. These are jumbled and reassembled using virtual duplication, glitch-like texturing, and other techniques. Seen together, these demonstrate how our world exists in a very real and yet a very virtual space. (x, y, z) is as an exploration of how the virtual blurs our borders, horizons, and realities, and accurately reflects who we are today. We are 'in-between' our past - real, palpable - and our future - incorporeal, ethereal.

Mindless
INKTOBER #2:
mindless adjective
mind·less | \ ˈmīn(d)-ləs \
1 a: marked by a lack of mind or consciousness
b (1): marked by or displaying no use of the powers of the intellect
(2): requiring little attention or thought
In this work, I tried to exact a sense of mindlessness. The woman at the centre is the subject of this piece, and also of this mindlessness. While crying, she blows out quite the cloud of mist. This mist is intertwined with endless faces - and one skull. These are all figments of the woman's empty thought. They ebb and flow with her distraught.

Brand New Eyes - Bea Miller
Inspired by the song brand new eyes, I looked through my camera roll and found a couple portraits. These I then cut the eyes out of. This collection focuses on eyes, using them to recreate random parts of objects. The 'brand new' exists in the sense of eyes emphasizing different, new parts of objects. It's all about the eyes, a brand new use of eyes.

The Creation of Today
ART HISTORY PROJECT / Hindsight is 2020
Appropriating Michelangelo's The Creation of Adam
My final appropriated piece is called ‘The Creation of Today’. It is centered on the hands of Adam and God. The hand of Adam represents that of humans today, with a skin like texture and color. The hand of God, however, represents the digital. It is made of up of swirling colors, but is made humanoid by shadows and layers. The background enhances this convergence. The specks represent both sides - stars and tv damage/binary numbers. This piece thus represents the intersection of the digital and the human. Like humankind was started by God’s hand sparking life, transhumanism begins by the digital flowing into the man. Our stark interdependence on technology is a significant part of life today, and is what this artwork seeks to illustrate. The Creation of Adam Today.
Reflections
& Voids

Capturing the void full of color that lies within CDs
I started by taping 9 CDs to my wall, and switching my colored lights on. I had someone hold up my computer parallel to the wall, and took pictures of the CDs. However, I didn't get exactly what I wanted. It became too much of a void, if that were even possible. And so, I put the very same CDs on a plain surface, took a reflective sheet and held it up above, and placed my phone in between. The three reflective screens create a repeated spectrum and mirror like realities. The image captures a void - one that is dark and bright, sad and light at the same time.

Televisions offer a subjective view of life. This one - it offers a subjective view of MY life. The visuals playing, glitching, are essentially 'screen recordings' of my life. From sunsets to artwork - it's all here.
