about the project
---

Three video-art exhibits, which individually and symbiotically deals with perception of spaces, dimensions and how it connects to the spectator's experience. 
This Practice is about reprocessing a scene, photography defamiliarization, something elusive that has no existence in the world outside of the camera - the technology that allows super-sight.
These 3 works were made out of photographs and a 3D software, which became a 3D model, floating on the black vacuum of the software.
The blue color is what’s left of the original picture which went through a processing application. The dark areas of the original pictures are marked by the application in blue, so you'll know what needs fixing. The blue model shown in the final photo is made only of those blue markings which are the black pixels – those are the ‘dark matter’ of the original picture.
