Abstract
The challenge of creating a dialogue between a viewer and an artwork is the next logical step in the evolution of my artwork. The problem is to find a way of creating art that does not only remain visual. By the same token, also to create something that does not remain purely conceptual and out of touch. In order to make the experience of encountering artwork more meaningful, a merging of physical and mental interaction in the viewer is strived for.This project serves as a tool for reflection on myself and understanding a way of working. It also provides an opportunity to clarify many of the beliefs and positions that I hold to be true in what I do in theory and practice. This project attempts to provide viewers new experiences with art through interaction.
