“Veillance Caliper (Annotated)” 2021 by American Artist is a large-scale sculpture that combines an interior recalling a precision measurement device and an exterior of wood. The latter has been scrawled upon and spray-painted with notes inspired by the writings of Simone Browne on different types of surveillance and resistance to it, as well as their impact on Black lives. This piece is presented as part of “Information (TODAY)”, currently on view at Kunsthalle Basel.
