YOU ARE SOURCE PROJECTION AND REFLECTION

Sophia Bulgakova (UA)

| | |

YOU ARE SOURCE PROJECTION AND REFLECTION is an ongoing series of projection-based setups focusing on non-linear reading in motion.
The piece is an attempt to rearrange the understanding of physical space and create an infinity of possible compositions that allow the imaginary to shape the notions of the viewer. The audience is invited to explore the space individually by submerging themselves into merging clouds of words using translucent screens to navigate within the environment. YOU ARE SOURCE PROJECTION AND REFLECTION is a site-specific installation and the text is always adapted to the exhibition space.

The project was developed as part of the Summer Sessions Network for Talent Development program in co-production with Metamedia Association and V2_ Lab for Unstable Media.
