The Glass Surface of the Digital This installation aims to establish a direct, concrete relationship with the viewer by transforming the pixel, the basic building block of the digital image, into a material unit. Each glass block representing the RGB system points to both the fragmentability of visual communication and the distance between the viewer and the image. With both its permeability and fragility, glass symbolizes the visibility-transparency dilemma of the digital age. This structure refers to Donald Judd’s “state of existence of objects within their own objectivity”, while at the same time, based on Friedrich Kittler’s proposition that “media directs perception”, this arrangement aims for the viewer to sense and re-perceive the invisible structure of the digital. This work fixes both the fragmented visuality of digital culture and the constantly reshaped perception of the modern individual into the glass as a material body. The viewer walking in the space looks at both himself and the digital through the glasses reflecting his own body. This gaze becomes not only an aesthetic but also an existential field of questioning.
