"Let Me Guide You" by Daria Arbuz
A lot of us cannot imagine the modern world without computers and technology. But even more than that, we cannot imagine the AI-less world being comfortable any more.
Algorithms and software solutions guide us through the paths that would've been so much more difficult and complicated if taken alone.
Navigators building the most efficient routes, search systems offering something that we exactly looked for, and vacuum robots not forgetting about that one corner around the counter you never vacuum yourself.
In this artwork, I tried to portray the fear of being left alone in the modern world without a guiding hand of technology, comparing the humanity to a child guided over the crossing into that shining light. We are insecure when left without internet in the unknown city, just like a toddler left to wait outside a shop without a parent's hand to hold.
It's nice to have friends. It's nice to have artificial friends, too.
