My goal with this project was to create a space where audiences can explore the subtleties of desire within online dating. I set out to examine how desire shapes our emotional landscape and influences our personal development, particularly through the intensity of these digital encounters. By foregrounding language, the work encourages relatable conversations within online dating communities.

​

Using cinematic techniques, the installation amplifies the extremes of online dating, prompting viewers to reconsider their romantic assumptions and how relevant they remain today. Through projection, sound, and text, the work invites audiences to reflect on how their understanding of love informs their current perspectives on intimacy and connection.

 

The 3D texts read:

‘Hey, gorgeous, nice pic. Let's meet for a drink (Apr 2, 7:29 am).’

‘You are hot (Apr 3, 6:47 pm)’

‘Had a good time last night (Apr 3, 8:41 pm).’

‘Sorry, I’m busy (Apr 5, 6:33 pm)

‘I can do tonight (Apr 10, 2:15 pm)’

‘We need to talk (Apr 10, 12:10 am).’

‘I don’t feel a spark (Apr 12, 6:52 pm)’
