Study Task 2: Visual Research Task

Whilst researching different artwork and focusing on the subject of modern and advancing technology and its impact on todays society, I stumbled upon illustrator Mads Peitersen and his work from 2012

This series of paintings named "Art Meats Technology - The Anatomy of Gadgets" focuses on the growing intimate relationship society has with advancing technology, humanising objects, giving a sense of life and attachment to these inanimate objects that we could not possibly live without.




At this stage I am a little unsure of how to approach my chosen subject of technology, and despite there being a lot of current and popular arguments about advancements in technology as a whole and its place in society, I am unsure of how to narrow this down into something more specific. Is this topic too broad? Do I have enough grounding/knowledge in this subject to take it further?
