RGB, D-Lay
2011
A hypnotic webcam video by Petra Cortright, *RGB, D-Lay* layers shifting color channels and digital delays to transform the artist's self-recorded image into an abstract, glitchy spectacle. The work exploits the low-fi aesthetics of consumer webcam technology, fragmenting and multiplying the figure through red, green, and blue light distortions. Cortright's piece reflects her broader investigation into online identity, digital self-presentation, and the visual language of internet culture.
