This is a Video Print
just video art you can hold.
#NewProfilePic is a looping video of the artist, Molly Soda, taking cell phone photographs of herself in a mirror. The screen is littered with glittering .gifs of women, the subject in the photo becomes an avatar, joining the flattened girls on the screen.
