Private Sublime (Video instalation) Artwork

This time based video installation of 3mins loop in set a black wedge box. This work is about the metaphysical changes that take place in the moment of looking and being looked at. The only way for the viewer to view what inside in the wedge shaped box is by looking through the crack of the peeping hole . This work exemplifies the theme of Sartre’s being-for-itself and suddenly being-for-others in the presences of someone else’s consciousness that poses a problem as that someone else’s point of view can suggest a different judgement. In a second, the world comes on as referring not just to your point of view, but the other one too. The gaze never only belongs to the subject, but to the object that is perceived as well, this object effectively return the gaze to the viewer. The orgasming / chanting mouth in "Private Sublime" is the embodiment of this idea -- the mouth looks as much as it is looked at, and makes demands as much as it is sexualized. We are exposed only through the eyes of the other. Sitting with the legs spread, the viewer's body is forced to be perceived of his metaphysical self. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dmAW4bjKODQ
