The Deep Loneliness of Society (2023) explores loneliness reflects on how society has become both connected in the digital age yet also isolated. The figures are faceless and are wearing different coloured clothes implying a different identity for each one all together yet they are in a crowd but still lonely. The facelessness allows the viewer to insert themselves into the artwork as loneliness, within all generations, is a very universal emotion that has become more prevalent with the digital age.
The figures are detached from each other emotionally despite being physically close, which implies the distance and loneliness within crowds. The colours of the clothing these figures wear are much more highly saturated when compared to the grey background; this makes the individuals pop out and active – yet they are not. The work has captured how loneliness causes emotional pain and discomfort when you see others around, but they do not interact, removing the humanness from these figures. Hence, the work invites the viewer to reflect on our society and contemplate this subject of isolation.
