The
word Fases – Comes from the Ancient Greek word phásis – which
means appearance
The word Phases – a distinct period or stage in a series of events
or a process of change or development
In this modern digital age, social media platforms allow us to take a peek into
countless people’s lives and the different phases or stages of their lives (No
matter how real/fake they may appear) we too as individuals capture and portray
different phases of our lives, this month you click ‘Like’ next month you
delete a friend or reject a request, dislike that page and loving that one’s
post, we are constantly changing and evolving our ‘image’.
Through their own unique interpretation the artists created portraits/figures
exploring the outward image of the individual and the phases said individual
goes through whether physical or otherwise, within the digital age we live
in.
