My work uses found cubic objects - keys, blocks, obsolete hardware and fragments of old media - to create a pixel-like mosaic that re-embodies the digital in physical form. While the structure echoes the precision of a screen, its material irregularities introduce approximation, texture and unpredictability – qualities that digital systems are designed to eliminate. The piece carries a sense of nostalgia for an earlier, more playful era of technology, when digital culture felt open, experimental and visibly handmade. By layering mismatched objects, embedded images and outdated components, the work generates a tactile form of information overload. Instead of delivering data cleanly, it invites viewers to navigate a field of ambiguity, broken references and associative meanings. These fragments resist the seamlessness of contemporary interfaces, revealing the 'noise' and emotional residue that digital logic typically conceals. The result is an analogue way of knowing: one rooted in attention, memory and the acceptance of uncertainty. By highlighting what cannot be neatly computed - sentiment, disorder, and the complexity of lived experience - the piece exposes gaps in the digital worldview and suggests a more elastic, human approach to understanding technology.
