In this piece Maetamm invites the viewer into another intimate discussion with his wife as she unknowingly looks into the hidden camera situated behind his ear. She negatively responds to him asking if he can ‘photograph her pussy’. The interest lies in her shifting body language, and the humour in their dialogue as they casually discuss the matter. The jolting ‘home video’ quality reminiscent of ‘Being John Malcovich’, and the sound of the children frolicking in the background generate the unashamedly real situation, which confronts the viewer.
