dc.description.abstract | Mobile combines the performance of fabricating a custom motorcycle with the performative act of documentation to investigate the relationships that we form with objects, the connections that are created by objects and the phenomenon of communicating experiences through visual artifacts over social media. The cell phone camera is utilized in the process of this artwork to capture every moment of the motorcycle build, from the exciting occasions to the mundane everyday instances in order to represent the experience to a public audience in its totality. By sharing the artistic interpretation of the building experience through images over the social network Instagram, their function is transformed. The photographs no longer serve to retain memories, but they become a catalyst for communication and connection as the experience is shared globally through this form of visual currency. | en_US |
