Golden Cage
Opal plexiglass light-box, illuminated along the four sides. The images (the frontal one and those on the left and the right sides) are printed on transparent vinile applied on slabs of polycarbonate.
To present my work here, I have unfolded the box to give the whole view of each part of the box: left side (cm. 12 x 77), frontal side (cm 100 x 75), right side (cm 12 x 77).
Work from the series "Gateways".
From our normal viewpoint, watching 3D films through suitable glasses or living all-round virtual experiences thanks to electronic extensions of our body are science-fiction stuff come true...
but what if we were retracing the way that human being has covered to get a sense of himself as an individual and at the same time - through the filter of senses - to create his/her own world but also its limits?
The box that makes the image visible thanks to light is the “static” representation of the microcosmo which the human being perceives as his/her own reality and which is just a light-box, a plate on which images can be changed as much as you like, from the viewpoint of those who are watching from outside the box.
