BEHIND THE VEIL

A philosophical exploration inside digital creation.

‘BEHIND THE VEIL’ is an exploration of the deep questioning about the concept of digitalization, the process of converting the physical into digital.

On reality is a lie.

What do we consider real when we only see what a screen presents to us?. This question led me to profound contemplation, realizing that physical reality can be as genuine to us as virtual reality is to that which has been generated by a computer. How much have we observed with our eyes closed?.

This is one my first digital pieces, created on Dec 2th, 2018.

This was the first time I realized, through a digital tool, about the fragile perspective of reality (After LSD obviously).

How the translation of our senses are limited interpretations based on the capabilities of our bodies but also the awareness and knowledge we have about how we identify this translations.

This is a secondary level translation of reality, one which is connected to our memory but also to language.

Language as you know, has many expressions (which are directly correlated with how we experience reality) some of them  written, spoken, seen, some of them felt.

This cultural based expressions are the base of how the secondary level translation is processed.

As you also know, most of the current spoken and written languages use words to define something.

This words are reducing a subject into a fixed moment in time based on a previous consensual agreement of the members of a cultural community.

So we all can agree that the water that falls from the sky it’s called rain, aren’t we?.

Well not quite, religion/science have a huge role into language, as cultural

As the modern feminist movement introduced to the global community modified permutations of subjects gender identifications, why aren’t we questioning on why we are using the same words as 500 years ago were people used to think that earth ended where their eyes could look.

Art is the evolution of language where interpretations are needed to reduce something unmeasurable to something to fit on your fixed perception of reality.
