New Texts and RAZR and U draws inspiration from early 2000s flip phones in the form of upscaled stained glass replicas. This transformation mirrors the artist's desire to own these devices, despite their obsolescence. New Texts scrolls aimlessly through an old phone. This work explores the allure of past technologies and the complex relationship between nostalgia, ownership, and the ever-evolving digital landscape. RAZR and U plays a live camera surveillance feed of viewers, highlighting the nature of technology surveillance and our self awareness and playing into this surveillance.
