Lauren Greenfield. Social Studies

Lauren Greenfield has documented American adolescence for three decades. For this project, thirty high school students from Los Angeles entrusted her with the invisible: 150 days of their digital lives, over two thousand hours of screen time, and secret messages. Fotografiska Berlin transforms this frenetic flow into a captivating physical journey. Between photographic grids and installations, the scrolling stops to reveal the beauty rituals, wounds, and trends that shape current identity. The work abandons luxury imagery to capture raw intimacy, just centimeters from the face. A documentary series produced for FX and Disney+ extends the experience, while educational programs allow classes to visit free of charge upon registration. Far from any moral judgment, this presentation offers an unfiltered look at how social media redefines our relationship with the world and ourselves.
