This sculpture explores the erosion of language in the digital age. A figure absorbed in their phone ignores the old dictionary around them. This mixed media sculpture contrasts tactile knowledge with instant answers, questioning what is lost when we outsource understanding to machines and convenience replaces curiosity.
