Glass Face

2012

Exhibition, Documentary Photography, Interactive Public Art
Artist in Residency @ Digital Eyes Studio, Dandenong, Victoria, Australia

Glass Face was a strategy for art beyond the white cube (gallery) that experimented with spatial and social public art practice. It is an exhibition that used the gallery as a site, to explore the role of the artist and its relationship with the public.

The aim of the project was to represent an image of a city and its people, a kind of self-portrait, rather than a work of art, made by an outsider. It is about the process of seeing and experiencing one-self in a collective and performative context.

The exhibition invited active public participation and the outcome was dependant on people being involved. A live studio was set up at random, to record and display the content, for the duration of the event.
