About Us

Interface explores the relationship between identity, emotion, and communication, as revealed through our primary site of social interaction: the human face. Its core themes are transformation (surgical, digital, and aesthetic), representation, and the historical processes by which the face has become shorthand for authenticity and selfhood.
