Manipulating Currency
video work by Scott Evans (us)

Friday March 4
6pm to 9pm

FOR ONE EVENING ONLY

"By changing the point of perspective on banknote faces, one can reveal the false nature of these symbols, usually used by those in power to promote a certain cultural identity and economic agenda. This is a statement about the telling of human-driven histories, the changing narratives surrounding those figures so "canonized" in cultural memory that they appear on currency (as a form of currency itself), which is why this work's title is a tongue-in-cheek triple entendre. The work invites a cynical nostalgia – icons from old regimes and ideologies – hollow currencies exposing indoctrination via banknote. So, how do we turn this form of propaganda back on itself? Through manipulation."
