Visibility is a Trap - the Source Book

The introductions to the people in this book are references, and inspired characters that appear in a series of works exhibited under the title Visibility is a Trap. In an empty exhibition hall where holes are punched into the walls, visitors can look within the void in between the walls. Inside the walls' structure, video projections of small figures sit and stand in different constellations so that they look like holograms. Previously, these characters had been included as a part of our common space. After being outed, they are now excluded and stuck inside the walls. Frustrated, they have discussions, they quarrel, kick the walls and end up in a jam session.
