Map
1997, mixed media, 03:00 min.Summary of visual illusion history that reveals how we get involved in the image. The artist gives us a mind map that guides us through a time and space art history journey.
The 'Map' follows the path of the viewer's - who is also the protagonist - perception in the complexly constructed realities (picture, theatre, movie, AR, VR) of this art piece. Turning a two-dimensional picture into a three-dimensional one and applying the rules of central perspective invites us to stroll through a world that uncovers yet paradoxically also confirms the illusions.
'Map' has been featured in many international festivals and exhibitions, and won several awards. Among others 'Map' was the Winner of the Virtual World Category at the National Art Biennale, Hungarian National Gallery; it was presented at the Video Art Locarno, Switzerland; Bauhaus Dessau, Dessau-Roßlau, Germany; L’imagine leggera, Palermo, Italy; Perspective - International Media Art and Media History Exhibition, Kunsthalle, Budapest; and so on.
