Escape

This piece was created by gutting out the inside of an old television and replacing the glass screen with one of my glass slumps. The inside of the television houses a mechanism I designed and fabricated in order to project two of my experimental films onto the TV screen. The light portals coming out of the TV change color depending on which button you press on the front of the TV-- adding a layer of interaction within this piece. Conceptually, this sculpture comments on video and film culture, as well as mainstream media, and its effects on society’s perception of reality, along with the disconnect that exists in our everyday lives due to technology.
