The sound installation People You May Know consists of a collection of audio speakers hanging in the gallery space, playing monologues taken from personal Facebook profiles of the artist's friends. Spoken in the first person, these intimate statements are personal and revealing. The voice seems to “walk” through the gallery, guided in real-time by an algorithm that dynamically generates its path.
Originally featured as part of the solo exhibition People You May Know at Hansen House, Jerusalem (2014), the installation was subsequently included in the Israel Museum’s group exhibition Brief History of Humankind, curated by Tania Coen Uzzielli and later shown at the Bundeskunsthalle in Bonn.
People You May Know was commissioned by the Israel Museum in Jerusalem.
