videomagazijn

STARE is a video that consists entirely of visuals captured from wireless surveillance camera’s in Brussels. Made in 2010, in collaboration with the Human Rights League (LDH), the initial idea was to produce a visual document that would embed the debate about privacy sensitive images in existing situations.
