The gap between emotional experience and its digital representation.
The work is built around an image of the sea, presented as a poster. Flat, reproducible, and detached from direct experience. Pixelated objects layered on top function as visual disruptions, obscuring the image and breaking its continuity.
These digital fragments create distance rather than connection, reflecting how emotion is filtered, compressed, and distorted in contemporary visual culture. The sea remains present, yet unreachable, reduced to background, signal and noise.
