I make dioramas with parallactic illusions. Simply put, as you
move, their compositions change. Using foam board, yarn, and
Mylar, I construct chambered objects and paint their facets with
polygons derived from linear perspective. These two-dimensional
shapes straddle multiple planes, exposing the slippage between
actual space and perspectival illusion. I am interested in this real
but hard to fathom boundary between spatial conceptualization
and orientation.
