The Unexpected Fall of Celebrity Culture

Ordinary subjects, celebrity masks, Fiverr-written narratives. 2012.

Photographs of ordinary subjects wearing paper celebrity masks. Accompanying texts written by anonymous Fiverr writers — produced without access to the images, operating as parallel fictions. Two conflicting narratives per photograph. The project was made in 2012, three years before "influencer" entered professional vocabulary.
