Acnea

Acnea

Today our technologies (re)define the notion and process of forming an identity. It became something that spreads beyond the body, fluctuates behind the screens and gets further from the physical feeling of the self — creating liquid identification. Acnea is the one from a unique group of unliving entities existing in the transitional area between humanity and its digital representation, footprints and collected information. The name has been randomly generated from the extracted metadata of her image. She doesn’t have a physical body. But does she have an identity?
