Can you see the percentage symbol in it? It comes from a photograph of a piece of machinery nonetheless...
We are surrounded by technology everyday, and—especially these days—it seems like more and more things are becoming an online experience instead of an in real life experience. At the art show where I displayed this piece I wrote next to it: What percentage of our humanity is eaten up by the machine? We are all heavily influenced by what surrounds us. So, if because of the circumstances of your life you were surrounded by computers, cars, phones and other technological machines, how much of you is becoming them? Is that who you want to be? If not, take (at least some of) you back.
This piece is part of my Cinematic Outtakes series, which are pieces that were left over from a shoot that I did for an internationally distributed, independent film. Undisputedly, this is my favorite client that I've ever worked for and there was a lot of love that went into this shoot.
Incidentally, the actual title of this piece is: % (How much are you being who you want to be?). But Etsy said I couldn't have % as the first character in the title (in case you see the piece there).
