The Web

Design / Illustration / Performance

The Web is documentation of a conversation held over the website Omegle, a chat room connecting strangers from across the world via their computers. The discussion was between two strangers with no prior information about the other or the circumstances of the conversation.

The Web considers how we attempt to develop intimacy and maintain connections with humans across spacetime, using the internet and technology as an interface. It also reflects on a want to empathize with other beings despite the vastness of human experience, fragility of information, and the limits to communication.
