About

The artwork is based on a fragmenting and reduced relationship to our own identity. These one million faces scrapped off the internet are no longer private people; these one million online faces have become virtual public domain property. You no longer own the right to your own image or identity. Everyone has become a target for data extraction.

Made in 2005. You need the shockwave plug-in installed.
