After their last wall project Grow, Spanish artist SpY created this piece called ‘Cameras’ in Madrid. It features 150 fake security cameras which aren’t watching anything at all. The project raises questions about the increasingly voyeuristic society we live in, about data security and public cameras which keep an eye on every of our moves. Filled with equal parts of irony and humor, SpY’s interventions appear to raise a smile, incite reflection, and to favor an enlightened conscience.
