Installation

12 x 20″ reflective helium balloons

Sculptural installation

The main concept of my work has been based on the  Freudian concept of The uncanny-an instance where something can be familiar, yet foreign at the same time, resulting in a feeling of it being uncomfortably strange. The works aim is to stimulate a feeling people get when they catch a glimpse of themselves in passing a mirror or window . On creating a space which includes the spectators reflection while altering it and incorporating it into the piece so as to evoke the feeling of the familiarity  in the observer. The spherical nature of the work is due to the familiar feel of a sphere on a plinth .The sphere is an inherent form chaotically evident in nature and continually apparent in man-made designs. From the smallest atomic structures to the largest planetary globes, the sphere continues to be perhaps the most common geometric form in existence.

The main theme of the work is the uncanny, a feeling evoked by being in the presence of of something simultaneously familiar and strange. I have created a head piece which makes the wearer confort themselves and view their reflection uncomfortably upclose. The video installation i have made is to try display the body extentions and the ideas behind them. The projection through fragmented images creates a sense of uncomfort as you
