<div><b>From The Photographers' Gallery London:</b>
"<i><b>Internet Photography</b></i> investigates the renewed role of
the photographic medium as it impacts the formation and understanding
of personal memory and social realities. Capturing the Internet
photographically means positioning the camera inside databases,
screens, networks, and algorithms."</div>

<div>Specifically, with the latest project<i><b> Obscurity</b></i>,
Cirio articulated "The cultural and social norms regarding how we
want to appear and communicate online still need to be formed. Matters
of exposure, shame, humiliation, and stalking in addition to
transparency, obscurity, accountability, privacy, and surveillance
have yet to be civilized in the new space we live in."</div>

<div>Paolo Cirio takes on this multifaceted shifting of the ethics,
aesthetics, potentials, dangers and contradictions of<i><b> Internet
Photography</b></i>. As his photography practice extends to
unprecedented fields, questioning the previously established cultural,
economic and political implications of photos that circulate within
the Internet.<br>
