Interactive Still Life
Nature Morte Interactive
Interactive Installation, 2018-ongoing
“Unlike the mastering subject of geometrical perspective, the subject who encounters light is not in control.”
Prof. Ruth Iskin*
By allowing each of the elements of the Interactive Still Life to be a light source, Jeanne Bloch imagines a world freed from sujet-object relations - a world consisting only of subjects -, be they humans, objects, plant or animal. In contrast to a geometric perspective that gives sovereign power to the subject, her proposal explores a world without a focal point. This world includes visitor and conceives of light as a relational material.
