Technology is so intertwined in our lives that we can’t detach ourselves from it. Be the wheel that literally moves the world or a smartphone that we can’t look away from, “The Things We Miss” plays with the effects of contemporary technologies in art and life. “The Things We Miss” is part of a series called Otherworldly, composed by digital paintings created by the composition of personal photographs, images from the Hubble Telescope, and Mars landscape pictures from the NASA's Mars Exploration Rover (MER) mission. This piece has won multiple awards including the Juror's Award from the Attleboro Arts Museum LINE exhibition.
