Slipping the Knot?

^ My first version, I think I like the simplicity more than in the next one.
This background adds some interesting dimensions especially in comparison to the flatness of the hand and such, but I definitely think the black background looks better.

Daniel Canogar

Daniel Canogar is a Spanish artist born in 1964. He works with digital images an pieces of technology that have been discarded. His work as a whole has to do with the relationship and/or similarities between human mortality and the short life span of ever-changing technology. Our reading used some examples focusing on his digital wallpapers, but I was struck by his more recent installation pieces.
In this piece, Scanner - El Tanque (2010), Canogar tangles electric cables into a web-like structure inside of an oil tank converted for the exhibition. He aims projected light onto the cables, which makes it look as if light is running through them. "As we watch the light surge through the installation, parallels are drawn between the human circulatory system and the energy that animate our information society." This is how it was phrased on the site and I saw no reason to try re-wording it as it describes the piece perfectly. In his artist statement, he says that he also tries to "reanimate the lifeless."
From what I looked through of his work, I actually love it. Especially Scanner -El Tanque. You should look at the video on his site, it's much cooler than the images. Anyway, I think Canogar definitely reaches his goal of linking human and technological life and he does it in a visually stunning way.
