OD–4.75–2.00x175OS–5.25–2.25x2

From C. Classen’s 2011 article ‘Green Pleasures’, this work reflects on the intrinsic positive values attributed to each sense: to see, to hear, to smell, to touch, to taste, versus the state of detachment and passivity that the domineering sense of sight might have shaped within contemporary culture. OD – 4.75 – 2.00 x 175 OS – 5.25 – 2.25 x 2 delineates a personal deficiency that will be at the heart of the artist’s proposal for the duration of the conference. The proposed performance centred installation will attempt to make the sense of sight less detached from the rest of the senses, not by completely disregarding it but by letting it exist in its natural astigmatic form. The artists thoughts and observations for the duration of the whole project will be collated in this blog
