Collage piece: "Satellite"

For this project I made a satellite sort of object. I did this to reflect our current technology utilized to connect us by using hands and eyes. We can talk, connect, located, navigate using our satellites and the hands and eyes help us do that too. It's probably watching you right now.

A Smartphone Retrospective
