Facebook Stili, 2014

Descripción

oil on canvas 100 x 50 cm How do we present our personalities and lives in public? Do we behave differently online and in the "real" world? And what exactly is the "real" world? Our contributions or comments on Facebook are also read by "real" people after all.. The Edita's "Facebook" project examines the phenomenon of this medium and self-presentation. What exactly our profile tells about us? We mostly share only positive feelings or successes, photos which are either funny or sexy, we tend to create our better "avatar". It is not about critics however, it is rather a social study; Edita is also an active Facebook user after all. She has painted these canvases according to real photos and chats on Facebook, thus bringing them back to the "real" world. And some reactions have been rather surprising. Some asked to change their username, others were pleased by becoming a part of this artwork.. Martin Fojtek, Gallery Fotografic This funny moment from a bar in Prague, it is available for sale. They were exhibited already in Gallery of Art Critics, Gallery Fotografic, Prague, Centro Checo, Milan, City Gallery in Leerer Beutel, Regensburg, see more on my website.
