DESCRIPTION:
Conical screens are suspended from the ceiling structure leaving approximately 2' space in-between each collumn for participants to walk comfortably in-between. Multiple-channel video projection of a river current is being projected from 4 source projectors.


CONCEPT: River is a multi-channel video installation exploring the relationship between the visual perception and physical observation. It also explores relationship of light specified work and environment as well as relationship between object and viewer. The installation consists of multiple conic screens installed throughout the gallery forming an inward-directed space and creating the premise for a possibility of perception which encompasses viewers' entire physical being.It attempts to transform the entire space into a submersive experience of a river current running through.
