How do I observe a virtual face? As an identity that is constantly being formed in this space, it is a personality formed by others, by the gaze of the other, by the multiple images that we have modified in order to show ourselves more and more. , as we wish to be or to be seen. Children, young people, adults, the elderly, no one escapes from the virtual gaze on social networks, a personification is desired, a transfiguration that turns us into monstrous people, anxious and desperate to be, to be able to cheer up the consumer network of the retail outlet free of happiness and pleasure.
​
They are filtered faces, that's what we do on a daily basis, a different color for each part, I highlight the eyes, remove the spots, raise the sharpness, add more buttocks and maybe my skin color changes, from what I see I am creating myself, as a self-construction of what I pretend to be, a creation of an imaginary that will always be different. A consumerist system that forces us to change, we show a denatured body, a renewed face where virtuality leaves no space to look at them in detail, we see the ideal and change to something more “ideal”, so we do not stop and perhaps observe these faces in a quickly and thus began to be left, without identity, monsters without identity.
