I want you to stop by all three windows. Look into the gallery itself, and then at each of the TV screens. What are you a witness to? Which world would you like to live in?
The moment a face appears on the screen, a set of political relationships is not only projected, but dynamically produced. Imagine what could happen if we have the power to produce relationships for the better? Deepfakes are digitally manipulated videos that realistically swap faces, so that a person appears to say or do something that they never said or did. This work is a meditation on how we perceive truth from videos, and particularly from news media. If what is “real” and what is “fake” isn’t so obvious, why not let it free us to conceive of and act out new realities?
