Description
Third Person is the second
piece of the ShadowBox series of interactive displays
with a built-in
computerized tracking system. This piece shows
the viewer's shadow revealing hundreds of tiny
words that are in fact all the verbs of the dictionary
conjugated in the third person. The portrait of
the viewer is drawn in real time by active words,
which appear automatically to fill his or her silhouette.
The collector may choose to display the words in
English, Spanish or French, or a combination of
the three languages.
The
piece exists in a shadow box format and as a large
installation.
