Ah, to be virtually irresistible! To see and to be seen in a long-lasting glimpse. Every upload, a performative fiction. A promise, a wish, a lifestyle. Look at me! The self, as inescapable as ever, updated daily for the sake of the internet. Obsessive contemplation, a real-time improvement with desires set to expire every day. Inhabit the glass facade, doom scrolling as window shopping. New day, new dreams and every morning, a bath of blue light.
No More Internet, Just Dreams! presents a series of drawings and textual affirmations that reveal the emotional remnants of growing up on the internet. Using visual poetry and typographic explorations as tools to build this imaginarium, the collaboration between Can Can Press and Emilia García explores the subtle deception of the search for meaning within the landscape of late capitalism.
In this publication, the editorial narrative around Emilia’s work shows a sensitivity towards the flood of images presented to us as ideals in social media, email chains, or motivational content. Essentially, the artist sees through them, pulls back the curtain, and exposes the heap of doom that lies behind. Grappling with the weight of collective delusions and aspirations, the virtual rehearsal of becoming something greater than ourselves is presented as a mirror in this book. No More Internet, Just Dreams! opens a window to delight in the absurd while we keep scrolling our lives away. No wonder we feel so multiplied.
