    Dear father/daughter: This is my confession/Question. Is there something you’ve always wanted to ask your father? How about your daughter? Is there something you’ve never confessed to your father or daughter that you would like to get off your chest? This is the birth of Listen In: a Father/Daughter Confessional. Artist duo and real-life father and daughter Minister of Information and Sarah Star collected confessions and questions anonymously through the Summer and Fall of 2016. The confessions were written on cards and submitted to the artists through the mail, collection boxes throughout the Johnson County Library system, and various other public events. Once collected and sorted, the artists read the confessions to each other, and responded as they would had these been confessions from each other. The result is a assortment of raw confessions, funny, touching, sad, and occasionally uncomfortable. The artists explore the current culture of diary-like sharing that social media has allowed us. Are your social media accounts meticulously curated to share precisely the person that you’d like to be? Are you a brutally honest over-sharer? Once you’ve released these diary entries, much like public confessions, you surrender the ability to control how your audience responds. This is what Listen In: a Father/Daughter Confessional grew into. What does it look like when someone reads your confessions as if they were their own, and responds as such? Listen In and find out
