SCRAMBLE SUIT (2004)
 
 
 

The installation examines the manipulation of people’s self-image and appearance.
The fantasies we project on our appearance makes us vulnerable to external pressure. People’s self-image is distorted by simplified stories told by the media, which obscures the line between what is true and what is fiction in us.

On the installation screenwall people encounter one extra character among their own images. This totally virtual character possesses the screen space and manipulates our reflections in there.
