Vinalhaven, Poor Farm
June 17–20
Hello? Is that you? Do you like your passport photograph? Do you like the way people treat you in stores, libraries, airports, in foreign countries? Do you agree with the labels that advertisers apply to you? Are you proud to be associated with your company or organization? Do you agree with your astrological profile? Do you like the way you’re represented by your credit card bill? By your phone bill? By your Web browser history? By all the instant messages you ever sent?
Let’s talk about passports.
Let’s talk about the security of this document.
Let’s talk about identity: Identity lost and found.
“Since each of us was several, there was already quite a crowd.”
