"Raven Black"
A Modern Snow White Adaptation
Digital Painting

Here is my modern take of Snow White and The Seven Dwarfs with reference to Netflix's series Black Mirror as well as biblical references. Here Queen Grimhilde (or just Ms. G) is the developer of the artificial intelligence she speaks to. She created it for one reason alone: to validate what she believed to be true.

Ironically, there is another mirror reflected in the background of the Black Mirror, but as the scene shows, it just sits there useless. The last frame shows Mrs. G, staring at her reflection. But how can she see herself the same way after what she was shown?

At the end of the day, whatever we give power to validate us, we also give power to invalidate us.

I hope this short adaptation helped hold up a black mirror to ourselves.
