A receipt paper comes out of an ATM machine, flapping in the wind like an unnaturally long tongue, snippets of casual conversation are recorded over breathtaking landscapes, the image of breaking waves caught in the reflection of a goggle, a leaf spins floating in mid air, an inquisitive shadow that does not look like you is following your every step… These are a few glimpses into the more than 160 cellphone videos that are part of Vox Populi’s Cellphone Library. With more than 100 participating artists, this exhibition is a casual, unstable and maybe pocket sized portrait of our everyday relationship to image making, creating a curious tapestry of the mundane.
