Self Initiated Brief - Design Boards

The project 'Praise the Wifi' explores the similarities between the internet and religion in a humorous, colourful and nostalgic style exploring imagery and ideas from the late 90's and 2000's. Websites are compared to places of worship; checking social media can be seen as the equivalent to prayer; uploading to the cloud is compared to heaven. The project has been bought together in 'The Internet Bible' a book featuring 60 full colour artworks including creator and artist Emma Knowles self directing and styling a shoot as the internet Virgin Mary with photography by Erin Williams. Other works include collage, 3D artworks and illustrations all exploring the nostalgic internet imagery combined with traditional religious text and ideas.
