In these video installations, he explore the topic of social surveillance and its effect on human perception. He is interested in how people react differently when they are aware that they are constantly being watched. Through the installation composed with readymade objects, videos and performances, he puts the audiences in a position to rethink the world they live in. In this immersive surreal environment made possible by digital manipulation of images, the viewers think critically about the reality which we are living in—the age of mass data and surveillance.

What does it mean to be a citizen – locally, nationally, and globally? How is civic participation defined? How do we define ourselves as citizens, and what does citizenship mean in a landscape that often seeks to disenfranchise and alienate participants?
Five artists respond to these questions in Decker Library’s second Community Art Show, Citizenship, with works from graduate, undergraduate, and open studies students at MICA.
