In this world-wide collaboration artists and other individuals are invited to rid themselves of an emotional burden in the form of a short written confession story along with an object that goes with the confession.
For example, the story could take the form of a memory, regret, shame, a betrayal - the categories are flexible and will adapt to the stories submitted.
The object could be a piece of jewelry, a scrap of clothing, or a handwritten note; the possibilities are up to the individual. Objects will be mailed to either Berlin or Chicago where it will be vacuum sealed in a plastic pouch, tagged as an (original) Confession Station artwork and reverently archived by the Project Organizers in preparation for exhibition.
Contributed confessions and evidence will be exhibited 1) online on the Confession Station site; 2) in Berlin and Chicago at gallery locations TBD; 3) on eBay at the end of the project for the completion of the concept AND...
Finally, in April 2009 the Confession Station Project will be featured at TransCultural Exchange's 2009 Convention on the Opportunities in the Arts, in Boston, as part of the exhibition "Here There and Everywhere: Anticipating the Art of the Future" and will be included in the "Here There" catalog.
