This digital self portrait explores the fragile intersection between human identity and technological breakdown. The image depicts a young individual whose face is fractured by glitch aesthetics, horizontal digital interference lines, distorted color channels, and data corruption effects evoking the aesthetics of system malfunction and cybernetic error with the repeated phrase "internal server error" in the background being used to deepen the theme of internalized conflict and digital alienation.

This digital piece utilizes a bold, cyberpunk-inspired color palette dominated by deep reds, burnt oranges, and desaturated flesh tones, creating a moody, dystopian atmosphere that enhances the visual tension. Bright crimson overlays punctuate the composition, guiding the viewer’s attention to key elements of the face and embedded error messages. This piece was featured in the Western Oregon University campus art book The Northwest Passage.
