“How do people relate to objects today, to objects of significance and popularity?”

Summer 2010 Louvre museum, Paris. I stood in front of Mona Lisa. Between us a big crowd of tourists. Mona Lisa was smaller than I expected.

Summer 2014 Alexandria, Egypt. I downloaded Instagram because everyone around me was using it.

I wanted to fit in.

Fall 2016 Computer Lab, USA. I was scrolling through #monalisa on IG and found a great collection of similar looking selfies. There I decided to download everyone’s selfies and make what is now known as Tiny Lisa.
Tiny Lisa is a compilation of people’s desire to own a piece of Mona Lisa through the selfie. To me, Mona Lisa is the journey from flesh and blood to oil to pixel and more.
