A criminal hearing is a scene where people are assigned to specific places. Some are defendants, some victims, some families. There are barristers who defend or prosecute, a judge, the jury, the witnesses and the public. In the old sense, theater is “the place where we watch”. Here, people become characters. Everything is on display. I observe the whole scenery, how judgment is constructed by the individuals present. Paradoxically, this super-exhibition reveals what cannot be seen. It’s stimulating to see the visible and the invisible exposed on the same stage. My work is about that.
