There is a fine threshold where light is not only seen, but it start to act as matter, it moves, responds and in rare cases lets itself be touched.
‘Canvas’ is an interactive new media installation that explores the boundaries between perception, materiality and light. The viewer's movements trigger real-time projected animations, that appear in a mirror as light floating in thin air, ready to be touched. ‘Canvas’ is a system of precise interaction between technology and cognition, as the image itself - the “painting” within the frame - is a mere illusion that exist only in the viewer’s eyes.
