    Annie Como - In defense of 77 sunsets
    I am an artist and designer from the United States. My work takes inspiration from archiving, memory, and taste regimes. The installation In defense of 77 sunsets, which features antiquated projections and prints of sunsets, explores the cultural values associated with such images. How does witnessing a sunset, with its ephemeral beauty and the nostalgia it evokes, differ from viewing an image of a sunset? When does the experience become kitsch and involve bad taste? This piece questions whether kitsch begins in the camera roll, in the mass production of images, or in their consumption.
