After the lab, when I realised that the position of the audience in relation to the screen(s) is very important and that the immersive feeling is very connected with this, I decided to place my spectator inside a ‘room’, surrounded by projections. Like this I could achieve the feeling of three dimensional
space. A maximum number of two spectators at a time would also allow a feeling of intimacy.
‘Inside’
‘Where is the line between reality and dream, present and past?
The real and the imagined body together with the spectator, coexist within the new space that is created through video installation and live performance.’
Concept
How do we perceive the space through the eyes (vision) and the body? Different ways of perceiving, remembering, feeling are illustrated. A huge pair of eyes is looking at the spectator, when in the two side screens, a body is ‘travelling’ in real spaces and non-spaces (white screen). The body is projected or it is a live shadow and appears and dissappears, comes and leaves, from different spots in the screens, confusing the spectator. Is he inside the head of these eyes? Is somebody watching him? The claustrophobic space, the eyes and the shadow create a feeling of uneasines.
