Series of 50 ceramics tracing the history of the system: an entity chosen at a young age by businessmen to become a big data idol. But at the peak of its career, a forgotten book will lead him to run away from the business district.
The ceramics were scanned and brought together in the graphic novel Corpogate. The story of the system is accompanied by a parallel story written and drawn by Luca Putz.
The project was shown in a group exhibition organized by the oblivion collective in September 2021 in Paris.
