Through to You, 2008

 

In Through to You, two modular windowpanes, made from coloured glass, were placed adjacent to a mirror pane. As the viewer moved around each pane his/her torso became disfigured, and subsequently replaced by another’s body. This perceptual effect was made possible by the illusion that the mirror surface appeared as a glass panel. It was a two-fold operation, whereby the viewer became both observer and observed and in effect, this actively encouraged an interactive dialogue with other participants.
