Who Are You
Final Project Documentation <\/h1>\n\n\n\n

Evangeline Mensah-Agyekum & Ebrahim Karam <\/h2>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Why this specific Title<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The title “Who are you?”<\/em><\/strong> was to force an introspection for the guests that look at the piece. The piece was really meant for people to ponder on how they see themselves. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the end, the main concept we wanted to enforce was <\/p>\n\n\n\n

“There are not so great things about you that you should accept, love, and forgive.”<\/em> <\/p>\n\n\n\n

We wanted the guest to accept “the demons” they have or see in themselves. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Guest Experience<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The guest would have been enchanted by the sudden start of the machine. They see in the blue light an angel that falls and rises repeatedly. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

As they come closer, the light changes to red and that angel has now become a devil. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

As they have drawn nearer, they would see the mirror in the back of the apparatus. They see themselves but they also see these quotes and questions in the laser cuts. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Quotes such as: <\/p>\n\n\n\n

  • Who are you?<\/li>
  • Have you truly accepted all of yourself?<\/li>
  • What do you see?<\/li>
  • What do you want to see?<\/li>
  • The inner turmoils of man stem from unable to make peace with their inner demons. <\/li>
  • “To confront a person with his own shadow is to show him his own light” Carl Jung<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n

    This would cause the viewer to introspect about their own self. It tries to deliver a message that when we look close enough we will see faults but we should accept those faults. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
