Postcards
VS Instagram
Lilly Lulay presents the project titled “Postcards vs Instagram, collective and individual memory of images of Mallorca, then and now.” Smartphones and Instagram have almost made the holiday ritual of sending postcards obsolete. In her various projects, Lilly Lulay explores the consumption of current digital images and how they interact with the consumption of Planas postcards.

The artist will present an installation that analyses the historical consumption of the body in postcards. She also intervenes a 1900s children's toy from the Planas Archive collection called “Children's Cinematograph” and links it with Instagram images from the Ballermann 6 area in Arenal, Mallorca.
