DAY 3:
I LOVE YOU
video, 2022
day three: i love you is an installation that consists of projecting messages onto a screen connected to a proximity sensor. As the viewer moves away, the messages start to fire faster and faster. Taken from real conversations, these messages are an example of the manipulation techniques used in maintaining abusive relationships.
The internet and social media have enabled such tactics to be taken to a new level: we are never alone, we must always be accessible and always reply. In the post-cybernetic monogamous narrative, to be unavailable or offline is the same as to not love.
