Comment: Metonym is a sticker set that explores store bought “irl” stickers turned digital. How they interact with one another in terms of color, and spacial relation. Bringing their paper texture into a foreign digital setting. Each one giving their own mood, feeling, or story, not unlike digital stickers/emojis.
Emma Damiani is a graphic designer and artist originally from New York. Her work is inspired by queer theory, perception, story-telling, and the way we relate to one another in our increasingly digital world.
Comment: Breakups are universal, the feeling of a broken heart comes at any age what makes love a continuous cycle in our life. Love and human relationships have evolved and are now part of an immateriality, an intangible event for a generation that is increasingly isolated. This sticker collection is a post-internet therapy, a boost of self-esteem necessary to survive a breakup in the immaterial era 3.0.
