This work is a part of my Blending Worlds Collection, which explores the ever thinning line between the material and digital worlds we live in. From hunter-gatherers to agricultural and industrial revolutions, to software eating the world, and now with digital scarcity, the definition of 'real' is questioned every day. Is the virtual any less real than the physical? Are we already living in a metaverse? The writing is on the wall if you care to decipher it.
