Description
A Conceptual piece based on the idea of how we construct identity and the forces at play. It takes a roughly human form, with a large box in place of the head. In that box are two “eye holes”. Looking into them reveals a diorama inside the box, backed by a series of flashing images projected onto a screen on the back of the box. On the diorama, a small figure guides blinking light cables onto a large statue-esque version. The builder sports the same blue coat as the larger figure, implying this to be an interior world representing the large figure’s mind.
