What is it? What does it show? What lies behind each one of these significant surfaces? Nowadays, the new-media context managed by the Internet and the computer remains as enigmatic as a photographic image. The viewer has become the user, the computer in a media manager and pictures in Graphic User Interface (GUI). The objective of this thesis is to investigate how the development of GUI has changed the artistic production and how artistic practices are able to change the GUI models into something critical. What the GUI is showing us? What is it hiding us? How can we show what we do not know?
