WHITE SQUARE (2002)
 
 

The human shadow is the immaterial other of the human body. The doubleness of human existence is problematised by introducing artificial shadows bred by computer code. Stepping inside the illuminated square, people find themselves in the middle of a living shadow land, where interactive shadows projected around their feet make contact with other shadows in the square. The shadows with a will of their own build a mental landscape of positions and intentions for the people present in the installation.
