The attitudes of Carolina Muñoz's characters do little to naturalism; on the contrary, they behave as people do today in front of the camera. The artist reviews images from Instagram and other platforms in which different communities give away their privacy to the public gaze. But nothing is so simple. The subjects do not innocently surrender to the digital gaze. Far from revealing their intimacy, they build a public image that disappoints the voyeur. There is no truth revealed by the camera, just a pose. Far from the truth, what the viewer obtains is the caricature of their own desires. - César Gabler
