Where goes the limit when Social media is platform for art, to become an artist, be like an artist? What is creativity there, what is the new and what is imitation? Imitation seems to work well. The illusion of thinking on one is being authentic, original, one’s own maker is hard to break. So what is the authentic then? Is it the character, way one poses, what is in the pictures, perspective, a new face, a new kind of way to present oneself maybe?
Many Instagrammers say, they do Instagram as artists do art. They create an image of something real which is on the other hand unreal, out of reach for many, a kind of perfection filtering ‘ugliness’ away. It is thinking of being absolutely unique via possession and wealth, admirable and with talent. Being cool and hip, in the game and a star. A package of glitter in a real world, untouchable and light.
