Exhibition “Human sponge in the age of Screens”
Exhibition artist: Kaisa Maasik
“The Human Sponge in the Age of Screens’ deals with the susceptibility of children and the way kids mimic everything they see and hear. The project brings together video footage filmed by kids themselves. Something that the gathered material has in common is its influences from mass media, the mainstream film and music industry,” writes Maasik about her solo exhibition.
Maasik adds: “The endless creativity, sincerity and enthusiasm of children in the work is amazing. But it’s clouded by the violence in most of the scenes. When mirroring their surroundings, kids have a way of showing us what society is like in general.”
In my design I wanted to capture the sensation of experiencing the chaotic world of television for the first time as a child, an entrancing feeling which full impact only becomes clear much later.
