«Respice post te. Hominem te memento». To testify caducity in supposedly incorruptible realms. Willing to serve as the update to the traditional memento mori concept for our digital era, it emerges as a meaningful reminder in virtual environments, often space of the ideal, places dedicated to the celebration of a self represented ego, its unrealistic expectations, and uninterrupted consumption. The concept also sparks a fresh discourse on sustainability, as it prompts a dialogue upon the transient nature of all things, even digital ones, since they carry a very tangible footprint. The project, in its digital sculpture form, participated at Vorspiel/transmediale in Berlin, from 2/2/‘24 to 2/4/‘24.
