Tears For What Was Done (2002-2005)

This is a series of works that focuses on the manifestation of emotion and the ways it is culturally represented.
The work shows men crying for all different reasons, some know they are being watched, some don't.
While the work is shown there is no background that could anchor the tears in a particular incident, no words spoken that could explain the situation, no music to manipulate our actions or emotions.


I find it interesting looking into the way people show emotions and what type of emotions people express. I think that this would be an interesting subject to consider whilst thinking about the subject for my video.
