Follow Me
Engraved Urn, 2019
The work Follow Me is an aluminium urn, engraved on it is my instagram account. It raises the question of how the virtual persona is connected to the ‘real’, private persona. How does the virtual self, the one that is shared on platforms like Instagram, relate to and influences our personal lives. What happens to our most private and intimate data once we die, and how strong can the ‘death’ of the online representation of ourselves hit us? - I engraved my instagram account into an urn. The death of the ego. At least of the virtual one.
