Accelerated Intimacy (excerpt)

In Accelerated Intimacy pairs of subjects were filmed as they made uninterrupted eye contact for four minutes with each other in front of a two-way mirror. The resulting video diptychs blur the boundaries between the viewer and the viewed, asking the gallery viewer to become a belated participant and asking us to question the social barriers that we place between strangers and ourselves.
