Red
by tisseurdetoile
(via)
e perceive the color red in different ways. For many New Yorkers these days red means "high alert". Terror creates anxieties that suspend reality and blur our vision and judgment. We stop trusting our perceptions and move into a simulated hyper-reality created by mass media. I am playing off this notion with my work and consciously put the viewer into a position where s/he has to interpret the duplicity of their meanings. For example, do we perceive the young woman in one of the photos as dead, or is what we see as blood just the spilled wine, and she is sleeping peacefully? The viewer gets to decide weather to see sensuality, lust or violence in one and the same image. The work, represented by nine large color photos and two videos is creating a discourse about the multiplicity of our audio/visual conceptions, using the color red as a metaphor.
