1989-1990,
Portrait no1
On plate of glass, facing the visitor, there is the reflection of
a woman's face. In the transparency of the glass it possible to
read phrases which are displayed on a small screen and which are
chosen by means of a trackball. A conversation is engaged between
the visitor and the woman. This interactive video installation is
an exploration of the portrait in the age of virtual reality. After
the painted portrait and the photographic portrait, this hypermedia
portrait tries to capture the sitter's expression and fragments
of her gestures.
