Their secrets will be posted back to the corresponding artists selected; and this ongoing process of ‘selection’ will continuously alter the display throughout the period of the two exhibitions.

In addition to your secrets, please include an INFORMATION PAGE*** for our reference with each envelope (A4 or Legal Size). This page is for our records and will be removed from the envelope. The page should include the following:
1. Name, address, email contact, facebook address, etc.
2. Name of your work.
3. How did you hear about The SECREt eXCHANGE? (from which person(s) and by which means: email, facebook, IUoMA, blog, etc)
4. What are the areas of your ‘practise’ (in prioritized order)?
5. Other information, verbal or visual, of your choice, including back of the page.
A margin for book-binding of 4 cm (roughly 1 ¾”) should be left empty on the left-hand side of the page and the bottom 1/3 of the page should be left empty for our notation. The backs of sheets may also be used for any additions of your choice.

Exchanged secrets and documentation will be sent to you.
Please pass this invitation on by all means at your disposal (facebook, email, rumour).

(declarative voice)
Secrets are everywhere:
Social Science unmasks restraints,
Journalists blow the whistle,
Insiders leak to the press,
Investigators......

Secrets waver between
concealment and revelation, are
probed and shielded, yield equally to
moral concern and ethical goose-chases
or resist both with obedience,
blind or otherwise. Secrets are the
stuff of State and Mind, from A for
autobiography to Z for Zealot.
Select artists’ secrets, i.e.: is a
secret, acts as or is like a secret,
refers to secrets or requests them,
masquerades as or masks a secret.

secrets of money, love, etc
