10 Charms and 454 Crushes

In April 2015 Paula Varjack conducted a social experiment using the dating app Happn (hyperlink to https://www.happn.com/en/) in Berlin and London, with a profile picture that wasn't really a picture. She received hundreds of messages from men and women (mostly men) about their experiences dating on the app, and in general. This informed a multimedia installation created as part of Save Changes a group exhibition at Stour Space Gallery Save Changes explored digital identity from a female perspective
