Living the Dream

This series of 4 paintings delves into a dream world that is constantly presented to us by social media. In an era where many people are addicted to their phones and scroll aimlessly in search of 'inspiration', social media has turned into a platform for escapism. Behind the curtain of beautiful interiors, clothing and idyllic holidays, however, lies a grim reality - an illusion that remains elusive for many. The dream world that you can construct on these platforms ultimately remains something abstract, accessible to only a few people, but it makes reaching for social media to escape to dreamier worlds tempting. By combining a collection of images from platforms such as Pinterest and Instagram into a visual story, I have constructed my own dream worlds with this series.

About the artist

Fay Goyarts (1991) is a Dutch artist, currently living in Rotterdam. She holds a BA in Art History from the Vrije Universiteit in Amsterdam and an MA in Business and Media from the Erasmus University Rotterdam.

In 2021 she decided to put her theoretical knowledge of art into practice and retrained as an artist. She works with oil paint and ceramics.

From 2016 to 2023, Fay lived and worked in Mexico City, where she was inspired by the city’s cultural heritage and cosmopolitan character. In her work, she explores how people from different cultures interact and how identity is valued in the age of globalization. At the same time, her work embodies critical reflections on the consumer society we live in and the role social media play in it.
