Alex Blaisdell: My artistic exploration delves into nested realities, particularly examining the interplay between my personal experiences and the digital content we consume daily. I draw inspiration from a wide array of sources such as movies, Craigslist ads, websites, and social media. The social dynamics of our interconnected digital realm, transcending both time and place, fascinate me deeply. Whether it's communal gatherings organized through a single online footprint, like a vague Craigslist posting or an indie theater screening of 'Mamma Mia,' these moments exemplify the intricate digital networks that permeate our physical lives. Through these encounters, I feel a profound sense of connection to the world and to others, and I invite the viewer to experience these longings for connection as well.
