ART

 

distracted driving


Shiny objects, new toys and an insatiable desire for convenience.

Demand our attention, amusing and distracting us.

Whirl around us, watching, listening, taking notes,
knowing our every whim.

Artificial intelligence always one step ahead, as we gently drift behind.

Stay in control, eyes on the road, which way to turn?

Wait, never mind... autopilot.

Mesmerizing, dizzying, going into free-fall.

Losing privacy, losing priorities, losing ourselves.

On the road to oblivion.


the distractions series

An exploration of distractions and misplaced priorities.
As humans living in a complex world of perpetually-evolving technology and leisure activities, we can easily lose our awareness of the big picture. These distractions can often take our focus away from urgent social and environmental crises, as we unwittingly sacrifice essentials like safety, health, and empathy.
