In brief, The Cyber West manifested in the Corporeal Rest is an MA thesis that interlaces theoretical, critical, social, and visual arguments. It seeks to create a protest against the colonization of visual culture by acknowledging the oppressive consequences created by the fluctuation between digital stock photography and its manifestation in the tangible world outside of ‘the West’.
