Exhibiting his full iPhone Camera Roll (selfies, pictures, videos, screenshots, etc), Ben Elliot uses contents from his privacy to emphasize current and emerging ideas such as self-branding, social media, marketing, collaboration, networking, human enhancements, computer networks – foreshadowing artificial intelligence. Displayed on an interactive stand evoking the visual codes of event design and marketing, the iPhone becomes an artwork while remaining useful as a product itself, opening the project to other formats than art.
Camera Roll can be considered as the making off of the thinking, life, and projects of the artist before these contents result in a clear and simplified “personal brand” that can easily be consumed on both his social networks and works. Elliot here uses the strategies of influencer marketing capitalizing on the private life of its opinion leaders to grow businesses.

“And even if we change neighborhoods, cities or countries, we always carry with us that sense of personal transformation that a piece of land, with its buildings, parks, bars, and people, has given us. We are almost certain to hang on to a sense of gratitude and nostalgia for it.”
