As Krawiec herself explains her work, "The Commission to Monitor More Difficult Matters" was established on 3 July 2015 in Berlin. The key message propagated by the Commission is freedom as a universal human right. The Commission addresses the dilemmas related to the enslavement of citizens by their being watched and eavesdropped on in the workplace, in public spaces and in their private life, by the unrestricted collection of citizens’ data, and by the control of citizens’ lives by the state authorities and companies." The objects presented here are 4 of the 24 members or agents of the Commission "appointed" by the artist.
Exhibitions: The Commission to Monitor More Difficult Matters is Watching and Keeping You under Surveillance, the 6th Polish Pinhole Photography Festival (2015); Agents on the Border River, Festival of New Art lAbiRynt, SłubFurt (2016).
