Kiaretta Glam
Fake Subject, Real Life
This artistic endeavour delves into the captivating exploration of a prevalent social phenomenon in our interconnected world. As social media increasingly permeates our lives, I've observed the relentless pursuit of portraying an idealised version of oneself through carefully crafted selfies and meticulously curated images.
"Kiaretta Glam" emerges as an artistic response to this culture of virtual perfection. Unlike those who retreat to the comfort of private spaces, I take Kiaretta, an unconventional subject—a Barbie doll, an inanimate object—into the vibrant world, allowing her to experience life firsthand. Captured through the lens of my iPhone—a symbol of our interconnectedness—Kiaretta embraces diverse cultures, explores new landscapes, and immerses herself in real-life adventures.
The contrasting concept of "fake subject, real life" underlines the significance of authenticity and genuine connections. As Kiaretta Glam challenges the norms of conventional art subjects, she simultaneously disrupts societal ideals of authenticity. Her experiences, narrated through the form of a doll, resonate with undeniable authenticity and true moments.
Essentially, "Kiaretta Glam: Fake Subject, Real Life" unravels the intricacies of perception, authenticity, and human connection. Through sharing Kiaretta's journey, I encourage the audience to break free from virtual confines, embrace tangible experiences, and cherish the raw beauty of unfiltered moments.
As the creator behind Kiaretta Glam, my aim is to inspire a re-evaluation of what it means to live a fulfilling and meaningful life. This project prompts contemplation on the thin boundary between what we consider "fake" and "real." Capturing Kiaretta's genuine experiences and evoking emotions, I hope to ignite wonder and curiosity in viewers.
"Kiaretta Glam: Fake Subject, Real Life" challenges conventional understandings of art and authenticity, blurring the lines between reality and imagination. Through this artistic journey, I seek to awaken collective appreciation for genuine connections, meaningful experiences, and the allure of embracing life's imperfections.
Ultimately, this project stands as a testament to the profound beauty inherent in the pursuit of authenticity amidst an increasingly virtual world. I invite viewers to join Kiaretta Glam on her ventures, to see through her eyes, and to discover the profound magic that resides in the authenticity of "real life."
