Questions? Email us: fwd.museums@gmail.com
Condensing a confidential memo from 25 pages to one paragraph. A form of editing to prepare a text for publication. The altering of information. What does it look like to censor? A notable absence, a muting, making invisible. Redaction extends beyond the simple black squares as incomplete redactions – stamps marked with ‘deleted’ covering the text– white squares, and handmade notations. Each black square signifies absence. It serves as a reminder for enforced forgetfulness. Uncovering the secret behind the mask and discovering the text underneath seems like a daring task, but is the redacted information really gone?
What is visible in cultural spaces, and what is invisible? In attempts to appeal to the public, what is redacted?
We accept any theme that explores the theme of CENSORSHIP. |
