"Unsociable Media" is a commentary on our increasing reliance on technology. The painting depicts a solitary figure engrossed in her computer, surrounded by symbols of our digital age. The spinning loading symbol mirrors the endless cycle of waiting and refreshing that characterizes our online experiences.

To highlight the contrast between past and present, I’ve included two paintings as a backdrop. One is a classic Lowry, capturing the bustling vitality of industrial-era communities through his iconic matchstick figures. The other, a contemporary reinterpretation of Lowry's painting, showing individuals isolated by their mobile devices, a stark reflection of how technology has transformed our interactions. This piece invites viewers to consider the impact of our digital lives on our sense of connection and community.
