Digital Transparencies, glass, plexiglass, lights, and wood
Inner/Outer addresses the same topic of epilepsy, but as opposed to the external component conveyed in past work, the new pieces address the more complex, internal dynamic of the experience. I am delving deeper into the actual experience of having a seizure and what I am actually feeling, seeing and both medically and emotionally experiencing during these episodes.
The lightboxes contain three sheets of glass arranged together to create a three-dimensional effect. The images contain a grid of containing brain scans of my brain as well as images and vignettes from my life. The color images are placed either behind or in front of the brain scan representing the thought or memory passing through my brain at that moment the scan was taken. As the experience is complex and multi-dimensional, the layering of images allows me to better convey the depth of what is occurring during one of these episodes.
