Playing with one's own shadow
|
Mark Cypher's Biophilia * installation enables participants to interact with and generate organic forms based upon the distortion of their own shadow.
The shadow resembles the participant and represents the relationship s/he has with the screen. At once reduced to a 2 dimensional image which menacingly begins to merge with other organisms in the same screen space without consent nor care for the sovereignty of the users concept of self and space. Have a look at the impressive video. The work will be shown at the John Curtin Gallery in February 2005 as part of the Perth International Arts Festival (Australia). |
