#HELPYOURSELFIE
or (self exposure strategies by tom lisboa)
Artist develops "anti-selfie" to analyze
the excess of selfie exhibition in networks
For the 12th consecutive year, Brazilian visual artist Tom Lisboa develops an urban intervention project in Curitiba. The difference is that this time the work in the city has as an extension in the virtual space of the Internet and social networks.
In "#HELPYOURSELFIE or self exposure strategies by tom lisboa" the artist proposes a reflection of the selfie contemporary phenomenon for its counteraction, in other words, the non-exposure. In a first moment, each viewer's face frame has all the gap areas filled. Then, in order to use it, each person must decide how much to show of themselves by cutting out the paper in the appropriate spaces.
Tom will produce and distribute 500 works of #helpyourselfie in Curitiba and also provide all models for download. As the hashtaged title indicates, the expectation is to see the result circulating in social networks, where selfies became popular. "In a time where everything can be seen and the self-exposure became commonplace, I think it is interesting to propose a work that takes a different direction. These "anti-selfies" are available for unrestricted public access, including for download. Help yourself and use them to create selfies as you wish." says Tom.
