Publisher Note

"It me" is an artist book by Jessica Williams. This full color book, bound with a vinyl cover, is printed to be the exact size and shape of an iPhone. A decade worth of screen shots, this book takes a deep dive into internet culture and identity politics through the examination of emojis, click-bait titles, memes, and selfies. What emerges is a work which represents the fleeting oversimplification of information and identity in the current era. The implications of which are a lack of nuance and loss of cultural specificity. The experience of moving through the pages of this artist book mirror the experience of swiping through social media or a dating app as advertisements creep uping up and down the pages. – Printed Matter
