Space of variation
This is my project in the framework of the exhibition "Mirror Stage" in Ukraine.
I really love this project for its aesthetics and complex technical creation process.
These are plaster figures with a frame made of plastic and gauze. The process of hardening of gypsum is very fast, so creating an object is very limited.
The stage of the mirror is the term of the psychoanalytic theory of Jacques Lacan. In his early works, particularly in a report at the fourteenth international psychoanalytic congress in Marienbad, Lacan considered the stage of the mirror as a stage in the development of a child aged 6 to 18 months.
Among colleagues, I really liked the intellectual projects, such as the "narcissus complex", which now, in psychotherapy from mental illness, has passed into the character trait. That's how the world changes.
Thank you for attention:)
