SECRETS/REVELATION


Also using their visitors' confidences, these works treat the very personal content they are being given as samples of human behavior with the intention of publicly revealing what is of intimate nature. Although testimonies are divulged with full knowledge of the situation, these works give the impression of desecrating the transmitted secrets. Impersonal use and the employment of images for doubtful purposes seem to serve a misplaced curiosity. These works allude to the uncertain and potentially disrespectful use that companies, groups, organizations or individuals make of personal information transmitted under the seal of pseudo-confidentiality.
