Agreement, 2009

In an installation, Agreement, two cameras face each other and eight switches for both cameras are on the floor between them. Cables go from the switches and converge into a master shutter release that initiates one camera only when all eight switches are pressed at the same time. The image taken through this process is stored and viewed from the viewfinder of each camera. The necessity of each participant’s agreement to a moment in time and awareness of the other participant multiplies the subject normally placed behind the camera. The usual object and subject relationships in taking a picture are equalized by the subjects acting in agreement and together.
