SAMPLE PROJECT
ebabes / eboys, Bebe Space (2019)
ebabes / eboys documents female and male members of the ebay community using their bodies to sell items. In 2019 at Bebe Space, ebabes / eboys photographs were printed on objects and displayed in a pop up shop. In addition ebabes (2017) / eboys (2017) films were projected in the space.
The ongoing series presents images of the ebay users commodifying themselves through chosen forms of self-representation to entice buyers into purchasing their products. The users create visually pleasurable images for the online audience’s gaze, sexualizing themselves in pursuit of monitory gain by capitalizing on the misuse of the platform. From these images a selection of equally desirable photo-objects have been created, the seductive objects were displayed at Bebe Space and were also listed for sale on ebay for the duration of the exhibition.
