This art piece shows a spinal cord breaking through a phone, but that phone is being kept alive by the brain through a charger. I chose to have a spinal cord that was not complete because it gives the sense that the phone is taking something away from the body instead of just the mind. The phone is also making the spinal cord yellow and brown to signify that the phone is infecting the body and making it lose its health. The brain also has some yellow flowing through it because its as if the phone is taking over the mind and making everything about the phone. The brain is the true reason that phone is being given life, the phone gives information and allows for communication but it is taking too much. I wanted to portray it this way to show the connection that people now have to their phones and social media. So the connection of the phone infecting the brain and body means that our brains always want to check it and also want to know what is going on at all times. The body portion is that we always need to have our phones on us, it doesn’t often have a negative consequence but it can lead to problems around you. Often times we are engrossed with our phones instead of actual people and that can lead to future mental effects as well, so it is important to me to get across the idea that not everything is about them, so we don’t need to let them take over.
