Watching Since 1979 – Mark Rowden

We live in a world of intimate observation—we learn, we love, we desire through watching. It’s always been this way: humans are hard-wired to be curious about what’s around them, and to take risks to seek out what they want to see.

But now technology allows us to share and see our personal selves more easily than ever. Do these open doors change the way we view our most private moments? Are we thrilled and empowered by what we’re now exposed to, or do we crave a little more restriction?

In this show Mark Rowden explores private and intimate moments in this age of visual consumption, playing with what’s concealed and revealed to the observer.
