🇺🇸 This is America. @chrissharp X @churchboutique — Chris Sharp is a Los Angeles based mixed-media artist & designer from New Zealand. His latest works repurpose broken and disregarded iPhone screens. With this literal technology embedded in his art, he explores the themes of data surveillance, our relationship to/with artificial intelligence, phone addiction, and the prism of digital identity. Chris is inspired by how technology is now intrinsically linked to our collective evolution. His work sees him channelling what he interprets as an ancient code of primordial circuitry, tribal pattern and symbology. These large scale works combine a “lost” language with mankind’s most significant modern tool. -- 📸 @theetylerlynch 🎧 @childishgambino -- All Your Data Belongs to Us 5’ x 9.7’ Enamel on 663 smashed iPhones A post shared by C̶H̶R̶I̶S̶ S̶H̶ΔR̶P̶ (@chrissharp) on May 15, 2018 at 5:44pm PDT
