Creativity of aliens (or distant forms of desire?)<\/p>\n

With the given application forms the viewer is allowed and granted permission to view the art piece within the space. A laser light security system enables the viewer to enter the space, where on the walls are shown wide print on paper prints with the same size as the \u201croom\u201d of the actual room\/space taken from a different angle and distance.<\/p>\n

A few chairs (3) are located in front of the laser security system and a table on which application forms to fill in are put at disposal; and a box to put them in.<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

The idea is inspired by the numerous, by default nowadays, cases in which a person is accompanied by and asked to fill in application forms and mention his\/hers nationality in order to obtain certain social\/artistic or other status.<\/p>\n

The separation between the viewer and the art piece is a mere contradiction in terms of the actual desire to show an art piece.<\/p>\n

The paper print of the space shown from a different and distant angle of the same space is\u00a0 a hint\u00a0 of the ultimate goal after which anybody, who is filling applications is about to gain \u2013 a mere change of perspective.<\/p>\n

The desired granted permission of the viewer to gain a glimpse of the non-existent different reality is questioning the instruments in which we operate in our society and judgments based on national and other prejudices. There is no assigned committee to decide who is to be given permission to enter the space, it is not important. What is important is that you have to identify yourself with a specific nationality in order to enter the space, then and only than you can feel the different perspective of being from the other side of the laser security boarder.<\/p>\n
