CONCEPTSHIIKAKU05 emerges as an embodiment of Japanese homophones, encapsulating the essence of ‘Square’ (四角), ‘Visual’ (視覚), ‘Optic Angle’ (視角), and ‘Blindspot’ (死角) in Chinese characters. These meanings intricately influence the shape, light patterns, and interaction of the installation, creating a dynamic fusion of sensory experiences that captivate the audience.
Homophonic Influence
Rooted in the multifaceted meanings of SHIiKAKU, the installation embodies a synthesis of geometric form, visual aesthetics, and spatial perception. The homophone serves as a guiding principle, shaping the design and interaction of SHIIKAKU05 to evoke a sense of intrigue and exploration.
Engagement with Sound
SHIIKAKU05 invites audience engagement through its responsiveness to sound, transforming auditory stimuli into a vibrant symphony of light. Viewers are immersed in an interactive experience where sound and light converge, blurring the boundaries between observer and participant.
Spatial Dynamics
Inspired by the concepts of squareness, visual perception, optic angles, and blind spots, SHIIKAKU05 explores the interplay between form, light, and space. The installation's design draws inspiration from geometric shapes and optical illusions, creating a visually captivating environment that challenges the viewer's perception.
