The constructed room is for me a space with distances and directions involved, and as long as my body as a viewer and creator threads run out towards it, since there would be no space if I had no body. To live a space could be an action of placing yourself for a moment in an imaginary situation, to find satisfaction in changing one’s “setting”. But it’s really difficult to enter into a fictitious situation without converting it into a real one. Controlled by these ideas, I am trying to create a space which encloses -and does not encircles- spectators in the showroom, it makes them feel that they are merging into their senses, in an experiment of interaction between them and the artwork, between reality and illusion, between real and fictitious.
