Have you ever stolen from your workplace?

Site-specific installation in the atrium of Combo, a former monastery in Venice during the Acqua Alta of November 2019 (high tide). Psycho-galvanic skin response causing a 12th century well to speak. Triggered by evasiveness and forgery, an obscure self-engineered lie detector is connected to a speaker on the bottom of the well, which poses questions while the perspiration development data is stored in a suitcase hanging above. The well conducts problematic inquiries with questions ranging from the fields of moral psychology, social history, Socratic conversation and cold reading. A perpetuating feedback-loop by a data-hungry void that questions our deontological or utilitarian decision making ways – binding together the well and its classic moral dilemmas. Part of the group show The Magic of the Sleeping Horses, during the finissage of the 2019 Venice Biennial, supported by the D.A.F. With the help and advice of social psychologist Gamze Baray and programmer Eurico Sá Fernandes
