Become a Clown in this Art Installation

INSIGHT

The iconic image of the clown evokes both positive and negative reactions in people. For some, the mere mention or presence of a clown conjures up childhood memories of birthday parties and good cheer, while others are confronted with feelings of inexplicable uneasiness. People’s strong reactions to clowns offer them a mirror for their own emotions in the form of a caricature.

IDEA
"BoBO"


In this Immersive installation post modernism meets Victorian cyber punk with a touch of Pagliacci.  Walk into a booth and watch a riddle frenetically performed by a clown. You emerge from the booth into the gallery space to see a curious transformation has taken place. Your picture is taken and your emotional reaction to the clowns performance was captured.  Walk out of the booth into a reactive gallery of 80 inch framed photos of you. Each photo has an animated clown head superimposed on your head based on your emotional reaction in the booth.
