The Inverted Theatre


The Inverted Theatre - my answer to the inverted box. The thesis of the original project is to take the enclosed display of a gallery and invert it, juxtaposing the box against it's environment. Here is an analog of the theater experience; the enclosed space viewing the public instead of containing the image.

I went to the mall and placed a camera inside the box - viewing the crowd, instead the crowd viewing the image on a screen.


 

I purposefully made sure to destroy the box at the end, to mirror the instant quality of film; it does not linger like the content of gallery. Rather it exsists singular to the moment it is viewed. It is more important that the box did exist in the Red Cliffs Mall, and still exists when viewed on video, rather than continuing to exist there.

All the videos from the experience can be viewed at the playlist for The Inverted Theatre at my YouTube Channel
