The series is about the process of how identity is generated. It is an ongoing attempt to re-claim and de-construct identity. It is about the state of being and the sense of time. The pieces are generated in real-time to create a dynamic hybrid image. This code-based practice constantly evolves and mutates the image, thus creating an ambiguous condition.

Using familiar and glamorous faces of top models, Goddess (2011) deals with the idea of creation and beauty. The program creates a unique moments out of a group of 20 women – each one different in nationality, origin, religion, and skin color. The faces changes in relation to the others and produce a face that not really exists in reality.
