I use a robot to reveal how invisible tech is reshaping you. Think you’re in control? Think again. https://t.co/Uc0ZDzfjrc #FacetunePortraits #AIArt #DigitalLife #TechAffectsUs

Technology promises a perfect self. I paint the tension of trying to live up to it. https://t.co/Uc0ZDzfjrc #FacetunePortraits #DigitalArt #FilterCulture #BeautyStandards

These paintings are a love letter to our gloriously imperfect, un-filterable selves. https://t.co/Uc0ZDzfjrc #FacetunePortraits #DigitalArt #BeautyStandards #FilterCulture

I use oil paint to make the invisible scars of social media visible. Because perfection hides the truth. https://t.co/Uc0ZDzfjrc #FacetunePortraits #DigitalArt #BeautyStandards #FilterCulture

If universal beauty makes us all look the same, is it still beauty? My work asks the uncomfortable questions filters avoid. https://t.co/Uc0ZDzfjrc #FacetunePortraits #DigitalBeauty #AIculture #SocialMediaArt
