Throughout this series, I explore how my generation, born into the digital age, has shaped the way we see ourselves and how we’ve learned to construct our identities. As part of a generation born into social media, we’ve grown up curating different versions of ourselves for public display: how we look, how we speak, how we behave online. Our digital personas have become carefully constructed performances. 

In this work, I place that digital version of myself into unfamiliar spaces that exist beyond the screen. These natural settings are unfiltered, unscripted, and not designed for performance. To highlight the tension between these two worlds, the subject in each image is pixelated. The pixelation becomes a visual marker of the online self, both present and out of place in the physical realm.

Each image is an opportunity to explore what it means for our virtual identities to interact with physical space. To question how much of ourselves exists in pixels, and whether the digital versions of who we are can ever fully be found in the real world.
