about 2faced1.com

2FACED1.com shows one persons two different faces in photos;

Persona 1:
WHAT YOU WANT TO BE
CONSIDERED AS

Persona 2:
WHAT YOU FEAR TO BE
CONSIDERED AS

This leads to a discussion about stereotypes and inner fears of getting misunderstood by the surroundings. Thoughts that every thinking modern day person does reflect upon. We're asking every day people from an innercity context where old categories as ethnicity, nationality, gender, sexuality and class are reassessed, why they choose to look like they do. We’re diggin' deep, peeling off garments, codes and attributes. We’re searching for transnational identities - is the conclusion that we choose whoever we want to be today?!

 

A 2FACED1 STATE OF MIND

A 2FACED1 is highly aware of existing stereotypes related to your own ethnicity, nationality, gender, sexuality and class. You’re trying to avoid them but sometimes also play with them to make people think twice about who you are. Two faced doesn’t mean anything negative here, it explains the double folded view you have on identity if you’re not the existing norm. It means you have the feet in different worlds, can move between them but feel rather at home in that space in between. You've stepped out of your comfort zone and have become one of the new identities where ol' categories are mashed up and rootlessness and non-given identity just means major possibilities.

The Intern: Stocktown / Decida

Post date Mon 28 Nov 2011 9:19 PM

It’s me... again... Hope you haven’t got tired of me yet! However Decida is still workig on the site and lots of other stuff. I’m watching a video by STOCKTOWN- Culture In Motion,  where she was featured this Spring and presents a clip that she has chosen as curator of the week. The clip is from the documentary Wildwood, that also has been featured in this blog earlier. But seriosly the girl in the blue shirt in Wildwood is bullshiting waaay to much, I wonder whar happened to her... Stocktown also wrote an introduction to Decida, and she's especially proud of the “modern day renaissance woman” bit but says her hair among other things is a mess! She will present two more videos later this week, stay tuned!
