Sun Worshipers. The Self Poltrait Between Art and Daily Practice
DOI:
https://doi.org/10.24310/Umatica.2018.v0i1.4931Keywords:
Selfie, art, social showing off, screen, desocializationAbstract
Sun Worshipers describe an atmosphere about the miracles and traumas of communication that has taken on critical thinking and have produced a new social system in which speed and exhibitionism are a symptom of desocialization, of collective malaise. Alongside the massive use of the selfie in the anthroposphere, the essay opens a discussion on the maneuvers of an artistic practice that uses the civilization of the screen to reflect on vanity and on the museification of the instant, of the present, of the actuality
