Obsession with the image, and the replication of the self imaging, plagues a society where individuality is molded by digital tools. OBSESSED probes identity construction amidst evolving digital culture and explores the intersections of art, design, and technology. As our digital footprints become more conspicuous new technologies and art-making forms are developed. Emerging artists and designers must reconcile with these ever-changing practices, while navigating through this challenging sociopolitical and sociocultural moment in time.
