Intimidad Romero

“Intimidad Romero by Intimidad Romero” is a webart piece that takes place in Facebook. Taking pictures and sharing them has become one of the most demanded activities, where the e-image constructs the self. These social practices have led to a displacement of Warhol’s pop star as the essential figure of mass media societies into micro-pop stars of everyday life, where life is lived through images and digital devices. In this sense, a new version of pop culture arises where the only experiences that are worth having are those that are “shown, shared and liked”. This project critically examines personal and interpersonal dynamics in contemporary digital pop culture, by placing a band of pixels in all her Facebook pictures, hiding all identitarian characteristics.
