Billions of images are created and shared online every day. Media artist Manja Ebert is interested in this phenomenon, making work that reflects on the function of pictures and videos in a networked digital present. Ebert collects found footage from social platforms and TV shows, then edits it together to create sculptural installations. The resulting works uncover the hidden dynamics, mechanisms and power structures within communication media. In Hard Feelings, five screens form a composite image featuring scenes from reality dating shows. The piece critiques how relationships are romanticised and commercialised under the guise of entertainment. The presentation is deliberately distorted and exaggerated, deconstructing the seemingly flawless portrayal of idealised love.
