New York-based artist, Molly Lowe addresses the ways in which technology has changed how we experience “reality,” relate to other people and understand our own bodies and identities. Lowe considers how the proliferation of images of people we’ve all grown accustomed to seeing on a daily basis on television, social media, and the internet makes us feel simultaneously more connected and isolated than ever before. Her cast of characters is familiar and yet completely unknowable — trapped in a kind of existential limbo, divorced from reality but still stuck within its inescapable confines. Lowe is sceptical of our hyper-voyeuristic culture, and her work implores us to pause and consider what we really gain from the intimate and often anonymous exchanges technology affords.
