ARTIST cocoro nakaura

I think our lives, where we are surrounded by many digital devices every day and are constantly doing things simultaneously, have become picture-in-picture-based.
We look at pictures and videos on our phones while eating, listen to music and send emails to friends while we move around. There are always square screens around us. I feel that the transformation of lifestyles in this digital society is a reflection of our current times, and I depict their daily lives.
