Help me Know the Truth, 2016
Interactive software
Help me Know the Truth is a participatory artwork in which visitors to exhibition become a part of the work across the gallery. Participants first snap a digital portrait at a small photo booth at the entrance to the show. In the gallery, they can choose between two slightly altered portraits to match the text label shown on the screen. By selecting the slight variations of the images over time, differing facial features emerge that reveal larger unconscious beliefs about facial features or tendencies related to culture and identity.
