This modernity receives the constant creation of digital content inspired by "reality" where the actor subject of the "eco-system" seeks to build itself with a flexible identity that allows it to adapt to different scenarios and people, but that is no longer related to the construction of an "I", but that is in function of the others. This generates a strong dependence on acceptance. The subject takes a selfie, edit it according to the construction of the Self = others (Perhaps whiter teeth, attenuate skin color, remove "imperfections, more bust, etc.) uploads the photo which is already a liquid element, superfluous and transient, awaits acceptance through a like, this is how the person has been subjected to a "temporary" assisted evolution through technology. | This modernity receives the constant creation of digital content inspired by "reality" where the actor subject of the "eco-system" seeks to build itself with a flexible identity that allows it to adapt to different scenarios and people, but that is no longer related to the construction of an "I", but that is in function of the others.

In this project, I look for the artistic approach to this “concept” using a wooden box, modified natural leaves, and an experimental video as elements of representation. The leaf and the process for its fragility turn out to be a finite process, it externalizes the connection of which the leaf was part, part of something bigger, a tree. Now the leaf is individualized, it is separated from what the leaf “is” and it is transformed into a skeleton that remembers what the leaf was. The almost translucent skeleton reveals the connections and the natural microcosm that has lost the ability to regulate itself after separating, as it renounces its own homeostasis. The finitude of human corporeality is represented by the wooden box, inside this box is projected a video of echoes generated by individuals who have built a digital "me" to the complacency of the "other". | |||

It is the denial of the canon taken to the extreme. Try to challenge the supposedly correct way of working by mocking the well done. He is not quite sure what the exact origins of New Ugly are. The most accepted theory among the studies of the subject is defined as a response against monotony and against a boring and disenchanted lifestyle due to its lack of prospects for a better future than the past. Therefore, it is not so important because you can practice experimentation without limits. | It is the denial of the canon taken to the extreme.

The video was edited with 2 programs: Adobe premiere and adobe after effects. The material I used for the video was already existing but I modified it to create gifs and images to create the video. | |||
