Translucency is a multimedia art exhibition revealing what we hide just beneath our skin. Pieces were inspired by secrets shared by the portrait subjects and can be viewed either revealed by backlight or obscured. The pieces were presented with a light and audio experience in February of 2023, and a piece from the collection has since been displayed at Chicago Fine Art Salon. The project is ongoing and potential participants can express interest here: https://www.benargentakress.com/translucency
