Julia Scher lip sync 2015

(2016)

Video still of the artist.

Desire and paranoia are at the center of this latest installment in Julia Scher's ongoing series of videos that feature the artist performing popular songs in front of the camera. In lip sync 2015, Scher is chased through the halls of an unassuming office building giving a frenzied performance of Miley Cyrus’s "Wrecking Ball." Scher's game of cat and mouse with the pursuing camera offers a sly commentary on contemporary culture's simultaneous desire to be on camera and fear of surveillance. (4 mins., HD video)
