MOCA's Thinking Emoji was a visually striking installation that got people thinking about their online presence in the social media era. It appeared in high-traffic locations in Toronto, posing thought-provoking questions to passersby, and created awareness for MOCA's Age of You exhibit. It led to a significant increase in website traffic and, more importantly, ticket sales, making it the most visited exhibit in MOCA's history.
