Solarnet

2168. The world is a vast dystopia where all memories of the past have been erased and nostalgia is the highest crime. The only way to escape is through a virtual space called Solarnet. Our project is a visual journey of the self. It explores how a woman is able to powerfully transform herself into different roles and characters by drawing a line between cosplay and virtual identities. Going back to a lost medium we chose the book page as a tangible, portable exhibition space for questioning the phenomenon of self representation, while melting the roles of author and subject.
