Overview
Shifty, a surrogate of the artist, is the protagonist of the video and moves through a digitally-rendered hybrid urban landscape avoiding surveillance, running, hiding, training, preparing, and scrolling on his phone. Though Shifty remains vigilant, the object (or hyper-object) of his anxiety is never visualized for us. The character circles, loops, and attempts to evade a future event that has yet to take shape. The footage itself alternates from CGI to Super 8 film, shifting from an illustrated world to depictions of a “real” one. This interface gives Shifty a life that extends beyond the digital and merges with our sunlit world away from the keyboard.
