public conVENience

Prix Ars Electronica 2007 “Hybrid Art. Honorary Mention.”
Public toilets – everyone uses them, though just the sound of the words conjures up a dark image. This place of very private cubicles separated from one another only by thin partition panels fairly tingles with misgivings that something is always just about to happen. While we set foot here for the wholly irrational act of excretion – euphemistically, “going to the restroom” – the enclosed spaces actually lend themselves to a wide range of uses. In order to preserve our own space in such a place, we tend to feign lack of interest in others’ privacy, yet events in the mirror still fix themselves clearly and calmly in our retinae.
