2016

About the Item

Get in the Car 2016 Acrylic on canvas 20 x 16 inches Skasi’s work arises from the belief that we inhabit the final romantic era before humanity's inevitable expansion into space. She foresees a future where virtual reality dominates, individualized fabricated worlds isolate us, and advancements in technology render traditional forms of communication, eventually even communication itself, obsolete. Remnants of our current civilization, such as old cellphones and toys, will become precious artifacts, their logos ingrained in our minds like fossils preserving memories.
