Display

Ivana Emily Škoro | Claudia Oliveira | Asmara Faiq

Display is an ephemeral, site-specific installation consisting of an inflatable made of yellow biohazard waste bags and light manipulation. The exterior of the artwork alludes to a smartphone screen by utilizing a window frame of the Create building. Display enables visitors to either enter the inflatable and become part of the manufactured spectacle or stand outside the window frame and watch the attendants inside. The participants’ roles switch depending on where they stand within the installation – they can choose to either observe and or be observed. During the daytime, the visitors inside the inflatable are shielded by the sun’s glare and can see the world unheeded from the intimate yellow balloon. Conversely, as the sun sets, the lights turn on to reveal the people inside while the participants on the outside become hidden under a veil of darkness. When a participant enters the inflatable they become an integral part of the exhibit; having no control over their display on the outside as the installation morphs their physical features.

Next to the exhibition opening hours, visitors are invited to experience Diplays between sunset and 11 pm on May 10th and 11th.
