Narcissus in the Machine
A modern interpretation of the myth of Narcissus, this mixed media sculpture portrays the embodiment of technology staring at its reflection in the mirror, symbolizing humanity’s hubris towards constant innovation without concern for its consequences. In awe of our advanced developments, we are prone to trust the veracity of technology and often expect it to compensate for our human errors.
In this world where we are growing further away from nature, this piece communicates our need to recognize the irreplicable beauty of the organic and work towards a harmonious balance between the natural and artificial.
