Total Reflection is a sculptural formation made of steel rail, epoxy casts with LED inserts, wirings, and a custom electronic mechanism reacting to internet activity in its proximity.
The work is an attempt at bringing visibility into the physicality of current technologies used for delivering media rich content into the palms of our hands. Considering fiber optics and that form is inseparable from content, it is a peculiar fact that this media saturated present is enabled by an optical phenomenon which is not only hidden from plain sight, but buried deep underground, in cables laid at the bottom of the ocean, underneath roads and urban landscapes. On top of it sits yet another broad abstraction related to the electromagnetic radio signals enabling wireless communication. Our ‘wireless’ lives are thus also our lives with that which cannot be seen. 
Optical fibers are the only optical part of a contemporary picture or image, which we can no longer accept as having any other direct relation to physics. Their routes are an uncharted map of international politics related to the communication industry, information, and economics, perhaps the only one available for the naked eye to see. I find the material relationship of digital media, from sub-millimeter thin glass fibers to rare earth resources used to create electronic components, an area of friction and inspiration as well as one which for political reasons lacks visibility and discourse.
