Installation
Dealing with issues of representation and pretence, of secrecy and disclosure, Jumairy provokes the audience with his installations. Both repulsive and appealing, his work thus investigates the space in between curiosity and desire, which is naturally opposed to the tendency towards self-containment and immobility. The installation presented within ‘A Public Privacy’ demands active participation from the audience, as they are invited to individually approach the objects and to discover their messages. The public and the private spheres are therefore connected, although on an individual scale: the dialogue engaged by the artist is not that of a mediatised arena; rather it alludes to the intimacy of a conversation, where words necessarily break down the boundaries of privacy to deliver a message to a wider (or not so wide) public.
