About the exhibition:

Turning an eye to 21st century surveillance at a moment when a single datum can unlock a wealth of personal information, Trace Recordings responded to the influence of these technologies and explored the new forms of portraiture that emerge from the intimate and immensely detailed traces we leave as we move through the world.

Denis Beaubois (AU), James Bridle (UK), Mahwish Chishty (PAK/USA), Paolo Cirio (IT), Heather Dewey-Hagborg (USA), Benjamin Gaulon (FR), Adam Harvey (USA), Trevor Paglen (USA), Shinseungback Kimyonghun (KOR) and Matt Richardson (USA).
