I explore corporeality and the pervasive virtual gaze on my body. Seemingly omniscient surveillance persistently tracks users, archiving our data into a perpetual existence. This work uses photogrammetry software, synthesising several photos to construct a biometric copy of myself. Employing methods of intervention, I mimic the mediation individuals face via our data-powered virtual identities. This piece ponders the changing existential role of the body in our rapidly developing techno-milieu.
