Process

At first sight of this assignment, I decided that I would create a work that reflected on the relationship between the information technology and our life, since technology has become the focus and foundation of modern life.

I first planned to create it in a way that remixes the technological elements and the masterpieces of Pop Art. However, when I played with the Pop Art works in Photoshop, I suddenly realized that their contents, mainly about the pop culture of the 20^th century, really had nothing to do with technology, and that forcing them together would result in an unnatural product. I then decided to learn from the form of Pop Art but abandon most of its contents when producing my own work. Therefore, my work utilizes the icons of existing applications as ready-mades and adopts a collage style which is sometimes seen in Pop Art, but maintains its unique theme and contents, information technology.
