Descripción de la Exposición
The Roommates is a new art space in London. A private room in a shared house where you can visit art exhibitions by emerging artists.
We are pleased to present our first exhibition The Man who send me gifts the first solo show by Estela Sanchís (Valencia, 1988).
Estela Sanchís works mainly with photography, focusing on the relationships between strangers, and the different mechanisms of voyeurism in Today's Society. She has recently been awarded the VEGAP grant for the production of this project.
About her project The man who send me gifts the artist said:
"I received an e-mail from a man I didn't know, asking me for my address to send me something by ordinary mail. During the following three years J. kept sending me presents to my address, and later frequent telephone messages. I didn't know anything about him but his name and that the sender was from Madrid.
As a response to his increasing invasion, I invited him to my place and offered him to stay there for 24 hours without the possibility to get out. During that day I observed all his steps with three hidden cameras.
J and I have never met".
