giorgos chloros

At the end of a 10 meter long and 1 meter wide corridor is projected a male figure. When a visitor comes in the corridor, wearing the headphones with IR LEDs attached on them, the visitor is tracked by a wii controller. If the visitor comes closer to the screen the projected figure will start getting undressed. If the viewer continues coming closer (passing a predefined spot close to the projection) then the man will continue undressing until he stands naked looking at the visitor. The viewer comes in the position of being close to someone staring at them, naked, having nothing to hide. The man will stand there naked as long as the visitor stays there. When the visitor turns back the projection will turn on reverse mode, in normal speed and the man will appear dressing up again in a weird way. In case the visitor coming in the corridor hesitates, stops or turns back before going close enough the undressing figure will stop undressing and turn on reverse mode just as described above, showing in a way to the visitor, that they have to go closer. The point of this installation, is that the viewer, when is close to the projection, is disconnected from anything else, every other light or sound source and they are going to enter in some kind of thinking process while facing the subject.
