After Oscar Wilde · The Picture of Dorian Gray, 1891

The Picture

A confession, eleven questions,
and a portrait that keeps the record.

Sound on, headphones if you have them. The monologue runs 2 min 5 s.

Before the sitting

Every portrait needs a sitter.

The glass will show you as you'd like to be seen. The picture, covered, keeps the record. Answer eleven questions honestly, or don't. It will know.

Your camera and photos never leave this device: face tracking runs in your browser, nothing is recorded or saved, and the camera switches off when you leave the sitting.
