ETTE
Matrix

2021

About the Item

An illusion. This seemingly self-explanatory title carries weighted depth. The background of this painting, “MATRIX” is an abstract representation of 1999’s The Matrix. The movie's protagonist discovers that his reality isn't real. Instead, the world is a vast orchestrated simulation of AI that harvests humans for their energy. ETTE thought to herself, "am I in control of my life? Or is my life in control of me?" Embodied on canvas as the playstation controller buttons, lies the answer to the question some dare not ask: "am I the player of the game, or does the game exist to play me?"
