technical description

The main art piece is a top hat standing on a lifecast torso and head of himself. The colored parchment materials are suspended on the silver frame (developed in collaboration with former finalist Tomasz Donocik) referencing the tattooed top-hat of his ITS 2007 "Cirque Macabre" collection. The colored parts rotate and move, shape-shifting to create a kaleidoscopic effect to resonate with the movement of time. Within the chest of the torso is a glowing “heart”, a light source that interacts with the observer through a movement sensor.
