Is it a plant? Or is it a social media post waiting to happen? Here at the Social Media Plants Mural, artist Sameer Kulavoor captures our 21st-century obsession. The mural itself is a commentary on how social media algorithms shape our lives. They influence everything, from the plants we choose for our homes to the cafes we visit. Kulavoor highlights how certain “Instagram-friendly” plants have become ubiquitous. These plants are like fast fashion. They are trendy and visually appealing. They are perfect for garnering likes. The Social Media Plants Mural depicts people photographing these plants. Some are even taking selfies with them. It’s a playful yet thought-provoking piece. The mural makes us question our relationship with social media and its influence on our aesthetic choices. The mural reminds us how algorithms shape our world, often in unseen ways.
