Digital perspectives on the figurative.
The figure of Saint Sebastian looks into the room. A smartphone moves around the figure. It seems interested, but it stays at a distance. The visitor sees what the phone records, but no one knows why it’s doing this – and what happens with the phone’s recordings. Will they be put online? Shared live on the Internet? Shown to everyone who might give them a Like.
