The work here is from my series entitled Babel. Babel is about human communication and it’s recent evolution into a constant stream of data regurgitated by our smart devices. On a daily basis, we in the industrialized world are exposed to mountains of visual, written and audible information. So much so that we cannot possible hope to process it all. What does all this data amount to if our brains are unable to process it? For me it amounts to a useless pile of symbols, noise, and distraction. Letters twisted in spirals, piled in pyramids, maddening codes, equations, and data leaking out of holes are my attempt to depict this assault on our senses.
