Through Wink Piece, Lignier elicits reflection and dialogue on the nature of human connection in our increasingly digitized world. He asks us to review the authenticity of our interactions, inviting us to consider how we behave online. The artist does not seek to criticize virtual interaction but rather to challenge it or the individual user-by encouraging reflection on how each of us navigates social media and networking platforms: how do we act online? And, as a result,how does our behavior change offline? ls it the tools or our behavior that sets the tone? Who is pulling the strings that determine our actions? And finally, what does what we see in our feeds say about us?
