BETWEEN THE EYES
The work challenges the premises of binocular vision. The stereoscopic installation invites the spectator to peep into slide viewers to explore different manifestations of spatial depth. The slide viewers include stereographs (= left-eye and right-eye views) that experiment with adjusting the convergence and the span of the two eyes.
Displayed through the DIY stereoscopes, altered experiences of space were created by varying the distance between the left and the right eye views.
How would it feel to look at the world through the eyes which, instead of the usual five centimeters, were only a few millimeters, 15 cm, or up to several meters apart from each other?
