2025
Peripheral Movement 1, excerpt from single-channel recorded video installation of a total 17 minutes and 51 seconds, created 2025.
In Peripheral Movement 1, viewers are asked to reflect on the hypnosis of transit, specifically the way we gain information through our peripheral vision. The artist explores how in the distracted moments of peripheral movement, we often are less—not more— sheltered from passing thoughts, worries, and dreams.
Peripheral Movement 1 was demoed in class in 2025, viewers were asked to take turns experiencing the video through their peripheral vision while seated parallel to the screen, as well as viewing it from afar.
