Rendez-vous Mal’addresse

1997
Installed in San Sebastian, Spain.
Rendezvous Mal’adresse was a site-specific installation.  It took place in San Sebastian, Spain.  San Sebastian is a resort town right in the Basque region and has a reputation for romantic rendezvous.  I selected three locations that were often used as a meeting place.  At each location, I directed a scene of rendezvous with people I met there.  I recorded them and made a photomontage for each location.
I then framed each photomontage and installed it next to the preexisting phone booth.  On the back of the frame, I attached a voice-recording machine for people to leave a message.
This project was commissioned and funded at the artist residency program at Arteleku.
