Creepy Art Installations Highlight Constant SurveillanceBy Amanda Froelich While this is anything but inconspicuous to some, its unnerving for many others for many reasons which are likely covered in Edward Snowdens 2013 global surveillance disclosure. If youre one of the individuals put off by the constant surveillance, youll love what artist Jakub Geltner has been up to. Similar to the activism carried out by artists in the Netherlands for George Orwells 110th birthday,Geltners project, called Nests, emphasizes the infection of surveillance in everyday life. The Prague-based artist devoted four long years to the project, in which he mounted satellites and cameras liberally to areas that dont require constant surveillance. Dozens of cameras and satellites are mounted on oceanside rocks, by a riverside walkway, and on the side of a school and church. The swarms of cameras in unexpected locations raise questions about the necessity of surveillance equipment in our society. Is the infestation of surveillance here to serve or spy? Every individual needs to ask themselves and their government this question, because before too long, it will be more difficult than it already is to escape the constant invasion of privacy.
