The twelve artists in For Your Pleasure use sound, video, performance, dance, collage and pop culture to celebrate the connectivity, intimacy and relatability of 2020's most downloaded app. In a nod to TikTok's For You Page', For Your Pleasure gives you art you didn't know you needed, from the comfort of your smartphone.
