ArtWork Details
Automata by Rocio Villanueva is a limited edition giclée print from the 2025 Print Collection at Selûn Collective, reproduced on luxurious Hahnemühle German Etching paper in A2 size (42 × 59.4 cm / 16.5 × 23.4″).
This conceptual surrealist work asks an uncomfortable question: who controls whom — us or our devices? The composition depicts a figure absorbed in the glow of a screen, existing in the threshold between connection and isolation. Villanueva's signature style transforms digitally manipulated photography into something that feels closer to painting — dreamlike, layered, and emotionally charged.
The artist's statement for this piece speaks directly to our contemporary condition: those devices that inhabit our hands have become our window to the world, connecting us to the distant while disconnecting us from the near. The title itself — "Automata" — suggests the mechanical, unthinking absorption that screens can produce when we surrender our agency to them.
