Glitter Klitter

2014 | Gif-file, 2.20 min., looped

This collection of glittery and shiny .gif files, wishing you the utmost wonderful things, was created during the final days of the social media platform 'Hyves.' Hyves was a beloved platform in the Netherlands that allowed users to connect and share content, and these .gif files were popular among its users. Hyves ceased operations as a social networking site in 2013, due to the growing popularity of Facebook. As Hyves approached its end, these .gifs became nostalgic symbols of the platform, where users frequently exchanged them as tokens of friendship and good vibes.
