BABBLING TOWER, 2022

ink and watercolor on cotton paper
2022
30 x 40 cm

« Babbling Tower » is directly inspired by the many depictions of the myth of the Tower of Babel.

Here the tower is depicted using cellphones and smartphones. Language and communication is at the core of the myth but also human’s desire to always go further. The cellphone tower questions our current addictions to communication devices and their impact on the environment. At the rate we buy and throw these away, our tower is bound to collapse.
