Whilst Exposure is set within the unique and idiosyncratic back drop of Port Kembla, it speaks to a universal feeling. The feeling of putting male validation and attention above what we know is more important. As well as the impact and weight of female friendships, while you're navigating the soul crushing realisation of how the world perceives you.
Maybe you haven't changed the foundation of who you are for a man, or felt a sting of jealousy for a friend who would give their life for yours. You might struggle to understand or differentiate between power and pretence in this show.
I think it is nice for a show to expect their audiences to look deeper than what they may see on screen, challenge them to feel. Seeing a young female artist with a camera. Young people explore drinking and drug culture, having sex without feeling. It might be easy for some to pass it off as hollow - but this show is far from it. I challenge you to let yourself be affected by it - let the random recollection anxiety from your past in - remember what it was like to have the weight of the world on your shoulders.... then remember how far you have come.
