#hashtag series
This series expresses the world of social media, featuring elements like hashtags and heart icons during live streams.
On the day of production, this work picks up trending hashtags from social media around the world, expressing the fleeting and emptiness of the world of social media through what is known as current events that only exist in that moment.
This time, since L4K3 is an Italian brand, all the hashtags are created using hashtags that have trended within Italy.
By reproducing the visual language of the digital space known as SNS on canvas, we question the nature of communication in modern society.
By expressing hashtags that reflect the ever-changing trends using stencil techniques, we highlight the emptiness behind the glamour of social media.
The work captures a moment as if it has cut out a smartphone screen, reflecting the complex modern society where digital and analog, reality and fiction intersect.
