Fragmented Body
A study on fragmentation that experiments and tests the boundaries of the body. Challenging vision's capability to extinguish and identify the body when it is seen through a different perspective, the suggested viewing attempts to give an alternative proposal of what might be beautiful in opposition to ideal perception of beauty as seen in ancient Greek art where one can always see the body as a whole inseperable entity.

Installation project
This project concerns the designing of an installation that allows the viewer to inspect his/her own body in various degrees of fragmentation and reflect on the relation to his own image.
The project involves different installations in space that are positioned in such a way where the viewer can "interact" with his own reflection and with projections of other miniature bodies that interject the viewer's body. The project aims to challenge the participator's perception and sensitivity regarding his/her own body with respect to scale and proportions. The participator can interact with the reflections and the projections freely in a play that requires awareness of self and space.
