The Night Has a Thousand Eyes was a collaborative project with British artist, Keith Piper Curated by Sylvie Fortin. Catalogue text by Cameron Bailey and Sylvie Fortin.

The work addresses the outdated and imperialist notion of the self-determined individual/subject by foregrounding the shifting of boundaries brought about by surveillance technologies and the digitalization of the world.

Viewers were drawn into a space of dramatic darkness by an enticing yet disturbing computer-generated sound montage. Within this space, they encounter two video projections beamed onto the gallery wall: grainy black and white images transmitted by a surveillance camera located at the entrance to the exhibition - triggering an awareness of their own vulnerability - and lush, enhanced video footage of layered computer-generated images illustrating the interconnectedness of the exotic and the familiar, of the experienced and the mediated, and giving prominence to memory's malleability and inherent openness.
