Sara Alonso, 1981, Spain / Exploring the transitory nature of the temporal.
"The Peep Show of Hearts"
EXHIBITION
Masters Degree Show, Glasgow School of Art
McLellan Galleries, Glasgow

In my work “The Peep Show of Hearts”, I question the lack of privacy in human interaction nowadays by studying and understanding social media and new technologies. With a futuristic tale, humans are obsessed with the life of the others, forgetting about themselves. Men become voyeurs and women, after having nothing else to exhibit, open for the public eye the most precious and human thing: their hearts. As an act of rejection to what’s not human, I empowers the body and physical material giving value to the process of craft. My work is primitive, using paper and stone lithography; printmaking to speak about social networks.
