With this project I was looking at social media as representation of society’s voice. I wanted content on a platform where content is created and discarded at a rapid pace and to then extend and elevate the content by creating permanent body modifying artwork. The idea was to create a more tangible and permanent experience with posts or ideas people share with the world which are often not thought of again after they are liked or scrolled past.

​

The outside data source used was a month of my friend’s twitter likes. The data gained was analyzed then given to a tattoo artist who in turn created artwork to be tattooed onto my body.

​

Each tattoo is a representation of each week's data.
