How do we arrive at ‘art’? I drew a lot
when I was a child and I really enjoyed how
you can sort of add a layer to reality. Even
as a child it was a way of touching the world.
How could I dematerialise? How could I propose
that the ephemeral qualities, the atmospheric
qualities... how could I suggest that this
is also a sculpture, also art? Light became
this amazing material which is kind of there
and not there at the same time. You don’t
see light unless it falls on something. The
work I have made very much expects, or encourages
the user to become active. Neural and muscular
interfaces were what made VR so incredibly
exciting for me. And the relationship between
my brain and my physical activity. So instead
of being a consumer, the VR encourages you
to become a producer.
