Known for PostSecret - the website that shows anonymous secrets on postcards - Frank Warren and his "post secrets" have been making the art gallery rounds in the DC area. We recently saw different selections of postcards in person at
Artomatic and the Hilllyer Art Space.
Postcards displayed at Hillyer Art Space were on sale. The website and books can be funny and moving, but would you display a stanger's secret in your home?
Visit the PostSecret website and see the calendar of upcoming in-person events.
if it struck, i certainly would. several years back i read one that said something like "someone is serving nine years for a murder i committed. two down, seven to go." pretty arresting.

"Pretty arresting." Nice pun, Lady J, but a very sad story (if true). Reminds me of this week's episode of Law and Order:SVU.
Anyway, back to the original question. Would I display a stranger's secret in my home? Only if it struck a chord of truth w/my own life, as Lady J said.
