CONFESSIONAL STAGE DIVING

2019

.

People engage in social confessions for many reasons: to reveal a truth, express love, seek forgiveness, or relieve guilt. In the age of social media, a ritual of confession has resurfaced upheld by tightly filtered networks and the lure of simplified narratives where solidarity dissolves into a collective uncertainty. Confessional stage diving takes the spectacle of cancel culture and hurls it into the chaos of the crowd, where a tangle of fragmented and subjective perspectives jostle for space, shouting, scrolling, forgetting, or unforgiving all at once.
