SENSES part I : Pupil

Project Medium: Video Box Installation - peephole

SENSES is a series of art projects that use the 5 senses of Human being to convey the idea of social phenomenon. This project is Senses part one, the sense of sight: pupil. Our pupil is no longer the old pupil. It is replaced by the digital devices and medias that give birth to the new vision, new pupil. By looking through the peephole from the box, we can see our own eyeball reflection with the reflection of digital moving image. Just like the kaleidoscope of information that we received in the reality. Although we are the subjective viewer, Maybe we already stuck in a preset restriction. The truth that we watch is already twisted. People still look into the peephole, Although they were passively controlled. Because the peephole provides a temptation sensation. It stimulates curiosity, imagination and allowing viewers to see a larger universe. Which shows how important for the media to convey information on the objective position.
