The cropped perspective of these figurative objects in their frames ignites the imagination, fantastical digital environments open up in front of us, as they do in the screens they inhabit. By giving new life to these dense and discarded materials and layering them with the juxtaposition of an ancient and digital aesthetic, Stephen Whittaker reflects on the value of the structures of our present time. Questioning the legacy we leave in the depths of the internet, do we fear the lack of trace we seemingly now leave?
