Translated Text:
Making is Konitong investigates the intricate relationship between identity formation and creative expression within the socio-technological environment of Nullum.

These works lay bare the disconnect between the meticulously constructed public personas of Nullum’s inhabitants (Nulnians) and their authentic inner selves. They employ nonsensical and visually distorted figures as symbolic representations of the absurdity inherent in how virtual personas are artificially fabricated and shaped, often diverging from one’s true nature.

Essentially, these pieces function as Grythmids (readymades) by co-opting raw digital outputs and recontextualizing them into artistic realms. The layering of text reflects the palimpsest-like quality of the Synthara (Nullum’s internet), where information exists in a constant state of being overlaid and reinterpreted. They serve to remind us that the Xynalor (meta-conscious flux) personas assumed by Nulnians are forever in flux, ceaselessly metamorphosing and evolving.
