“In spaces of illusion, the moving observer receives an illusionary impression of space by focusing on objects that move towards or away from him. The depth of a painted space, however, is experienced, or presumed, only in the imagination. … The technical idea that is Virtual Reality now makes it possible to represent space as dependent on the direction of the observer’s gaze: the viewpoint is no longer static or dynamically linear, but theoretically includes an infinite number of possible perspectives.“ (Oliver Grau)

Sticker- en digitale collages, een zuil, deuren, prints, tapijt en een vijfluik. Binnen de fysieke ruimte waar de toeschouwer zich tussen de werken beweegt, biedt een virtuele simulatie nieuwe perspectieven. (In samenwerking met Fons Artois, Mediakunst).

Sticker and digital collages, a column, doors, prints, carpet and a five-panel work. Within the physical space in which the viewer navigates between the works, a virtual simulation opens up new perspectives. (In collaboration with Fons Artois, Media Arts.)
