2005
With the Piss-take project I produced for my first
involvement in KISSS, that project was about making a
journey through the city streets, with these containers which
were urine, but could have been anything, ammonia or any
other dangerous substance. We were not stopped as we made
this journey through the underground and the streets. The
camera is so normalised now that when I presented the urine
to the nurse at the end of the journey she was perfectly happy
to be filmed, almost performing to the camera directly, while
taking details of the urine samples for testing. Suppression
is an important part of the project but what does surveillance
do? Do we always act up to the cameras?
