This is a self-portrait of the artist captured from within SELF, a time-based experience (also by the artist) that provides a technologically mediated meditation of and with the viewer’s reflection. SELF provides the viewer with an intimate space augmented by technological intervention of emotive sounds and perspective altering lighting with which the viewer can focus on seeing themselves and engaging in a heightened awareness and understanding of themselves. Through light, sound, and reflection SELF simultaneously dissolves the viewer’s sense of their individuality, whilst facilitating deepened senses of identification, recognition and knowing.
