Conceived as a book expanded into an exhibition space, T-R-U-T-H is the culmination of obsessive research referencing many disparate sources, ranging from short stories to cinema, and from hoaxes to philosophy. A web of connections is created around a single topic: Truth. These include short stories written by Lydia Davis, every film that Jean Pierre Léaud has starred in, a hoax about a Temporary Tattoo that contains LSD, and the interpretation of Lacan’s theories about Lack. Book pages give the viewer insight into the individual works, each relating back to the overarching theme. With each exhibition of the project, T-R-U-T-H is considered an edition of a book in the making – with each version arranged slightly differently than the last. On the occasion at Art Metropole’s new location in June 2012, the book installation has been further transformed into a multiple, available in an edition of 10 + 2 AP + 3 PP copies.
