Real Eyes Realize Real Lies (2019) is a multi-channel video installation that includes several textile prints. Pictorially, this work refers to the general interpretation of the aesthetics associated with a climate of intrigue and paranoia. An aspect culturally coded in images, videos and artefacts. A place where a viewer is presented with a succession of footages, recontextualized and deconstructed to the existing content. Overall, the submitted videos form the core of the piece are played out as edited and layered found-footage, sources from a variety of disputable and distrustful internet fora, social networks and ancient mystical symbols. They are reaffirming that speculation and irony are the two anchoring elements of this work. Real Eyes Realize Real Lies re-performs familiar narratives, constructing new possibilities for making more coherent understanding of the subject at hand.
