Viewers enter the cubic structure through a double door. Once inside, they see five points of light in a dark, empty room. After about 10 seconds, the viewers notice a spot of light projected on the floor. Soon, as clouds start to appear, they recognize that this is an image of the sun.

Slowly the image turns from black and white to full color as all the details of the environment gradually become visible. Tops of buildings are seen as an inverted tree appears silhouetted against the horizon. Soon a person is spotted running by in a field, upside-down on one of the walls and grass is seen projected on the ceiling.

When eyes fully adjust to the low light levels, viewers realize that they are completely surrounded by what is outside projected upside-down on the interior walls.

The camera obscura technique is quite simple and is centuries old. By using multiple holes and careful blocking, this installation transforms the camera obscura into a fully immersive simulation of the environment the installation resides in.

We are currently scheduling future exhibitions.
