Technically Connected: Screen Scenes

A series of large-scale digital photographs portraits that reveal identities and behaviors associated with users of social networking programs in the context of personal communication devices, such as smart-phones, laptops, and personal computers.

This work focuses on people who use personal technology as a primary source of communication between family and social groups. The work reveals technology-mediated relationships by combining digital photography and appropriated imagery to contextualize personal stories of daily technology users.

Screen Scenes also uses staged images to explore the process of self-discovery through narratives of behaviors associated with technology use and the roles that people assign personal technology in their lives.
