SIDE JOB is an online performance in the form of a scripted group critique. A panel of experts discusses an unseen artwork via video call, conveying it to participants who can only experience the work through the critics’ words and gestures. The piece exists solely in non-material form and examines how value and meaning are constructed under constraints of visibility, coercion, and digital performativity. It highlights the dynamics of power, self-presentation, and repetition within the hyper-exposed setting of the screen.
