Paranoia. Installation with moving image. Variable dimensions 2011 Enschede (The Netherlands) 2012 Havana ( Cuba)
Description
It is an intervention which has two spaces, a public and visible one, and a private and no detectable one. Two spaces, outdoor and indoor which will be related by a rifle, a camera with a transmitter and a screen connected to the camera. The rifle will aim against every person that goes by its area of action (where the screen will be located). Everyone who gets in this area will be threatened and able to be spectator of his/her position in "danger".
Statement
The Project I am proposing has a main subject the fear and its most powerful detonator, the unknown enemy. The invisible enemy that spies from an unknown and protected secret place, out of our scope. The enemy who observes distantly and simultaneously nearby, the sufficiently nearby to infringe us disturbance. The paranoia generates because of all that is the principal subject of my work. I pretend that the spectator get the feeling of be watched, controlled and pointed from an unknown place, which for me is a very frequently feeling to the people at the actual societies.
