We are living in a time full of contradictions. New technologies provide us the sea of opportunities to connect with one another, but in real life, it seems that people were never more isolated than today.
In the gallery below you can see more than 40 illustrations presenting some of the modern phenomena which most of us can recognise. Ironic illustrations bring a clear message and must make one think: Does the technology makes our lives better? French illustrator Jean Jullien with his witty illustrations has no intention to underestimated the technology, but to highlight that nothing can beat genuine, face-to-face interaction with others and that life isn’t meant to be lived from behind a phone or a computer screen.
Take your time to scroll down the gallery of these thought-provoking illustrations though we can’t wait to hear what you think. Share with us your thoughts and share the gallery with your friends.
