fill in the blanks







Think about space, escaping, hiding spaces, building a house on a moving object. thriving in departure zones like bus stations and airports. standing still in a dust storm or at the top of Martin Place. waiting watching. think about closing your eyes and imagine running so fast. you breathe fast, start gasping for air and you haven't moved a muscle. lying at the bottom of the pool and looking up through the water. diving. listening to your breath. closing your eyes.







then think about construction/fabrication/make up masks/costumes/houses.







games/ ladders/interiors/superfluous decoration and the definition of O.T.T . and imagine how much you can hide under that distraction, colourful beautiful creative mess.

Kaleidescopes

this is a fun piece. and something playful and serious all at once. as you move, the image moves with you. It rhythmically moves a projected image of whatever stands infront of it, randomly selecting parts of you and then fracturing them in space., the image is like having fly eyes or being trapped inside a kaleidescope. your relationship between self and representation is illuminated. real time and space in sync with it's representation. uniformity, patterns, wave theory/ quantum physics come to mind
It is by Juhu Huuskanen from 2003. It was taken quite a while ago. I was still blonde :)
