Construction of Identity in Reality TV
This section explores how artists engage with the mechanisms through which
identity is constructed, staged, and performed within the reality TV format.
Drawing from the language of video art and media installation, the works question what is authentic versus what is manufactured for entertainment.
Artists investigate the tension between self-presentation and media framing, revealing how reality TV blurs the line between truth and performance.
These projects lay the groundwork for understanding how broader cultural identities are shaped, reinforced, or disrupted within mass media.
