Linus와 함께하는 이모티콘 탁구 (Emoji Ping Pong with Linus)

"This image belongs to a series that arises from conversations I had with family and friends in times of pandemic through the digital collage of emojis. We started this practice with my cousin Daniel and it has already transcended time and space. The communicative proposal was simple: one starts sending an empty background with an emoji; the next person adds another emoji to the previous one and sends this back; so it goes on repeating back and forth until the beautiful accumulation begins to bear the fruits of cybernetic magic. There are no social deadlines, you respond when you can. This particular image that is presented at the CICA museum comes from a conversation I had for months with a very special loved one, my nephew Linus. Sometimes we gave ourselves the freedom to even add stickers and not just emojis. This informs the spirit of these exchanges: honest conversations without words that are heard even louder."
