Surveillance and Camouflage

A lot of today's world is about hiding, about covering up, and about trying to find the things that people hide and cover up. Some people believe they have a right to privacy, others believe that privacy means lack of safety.

Desiree Palmen is doing some very appealing work about camouflage, about hiding in spaces. Hiding in private spaces, and hiding in public. Her work, much of which involves people wearing full-body clothing that is painted to look like exactly what is behind the subject, is thoroughly interesting as well as enjoyable to marvel at, and can be found here. It is my firm opinion that you should look at it all.
