Visibility is a Trap by Laurent Grasso, Toronto Biennial of Art, 259 Lake Shore Boulevard East, Toronto, ON

Excerpt from torontobiennial.org:

 

The neon sign Visibility is a Trap invokes Michel Foucault’s theory of panopticism, which argues that a state of permanent visibility and threat of surveillance induces self-discipline. For Grasso, the viewer’s interaction with the illuminated text is key—one becomes increasingly visible as they enter the glow of the neon light.
