CYBERLOVE 2

42x29,7cm sketchbook drawings, Colored pencils on paper, Vienna 2020

These drawings illustrate various dialogues through sex dating apps during isolation. Searching for love or casual fun becomes a strange kind of acceptance of one's own nudity, or mutual and superficial touches by sending nude photos. Comic-like dialogues illustrate limitless ideas of everyone involved. The language in chat is reduced to a minimum and the fictional universe of smartphones develops a new coding through routinely learned shortenings, such as listing sex preferences and finding the right person. This coding appears strange when we look at it again, as if we were going backwards intellectually. With these drawings I address the phenomenon "how to delete yourself" and museumize a collection of selfishness, loneliness and a life in isolation.
