Simple Hand masking

inspiration for trapped

Woman was created from Man's rib; Not made from His head to top Him; Nor from His feet to be trampled; But from His side to be His equal, Under His arm to be protected, And near His heart to be loved.

Experimental Artist Statement

Title of Piece: Trapped Concept: Horror/Dark Psychology/Fantasy Project Description: A plastic room that is equipped with five 13” televisions. The television will be placed on a table or tables to resemble human body parts on a surgical table. The plastic wall will invade personal space of the viewers, creating a sense of alertness to whatever roams behind the plastic wall. The televisions will show a woman lie on the floor and surrounded by mirrors. The feeling of claustrophobic will be emphasized by the small space in the room, sound and the looping movies. Project History: How would one act when one realizes he/she is trapped? Panic would take over and mix feelings of death, claustrophobic, blurry visions; etc will emerge as the person loses control of his/her reality. Then fear comes next as it taunts its victim to do irrational things that may end the person’s life. Equipment: 1. five 13” televisions 2. Chair 5. 2 Extension cords 6. Fishing lines – artist provide 7. Painters plastic – artist provide 8. Speakers 9. fan

Experimental installation

Artist Statement: 

A short horror scene that tells the horror experience of a kidnapped victim being used as sacrificial bait to lure a demon/ghost out into the real world.

Title of Piece: 

Don’t look at the Mirror 

Concept: 

Horror/sci fi/ fantasy

Project Description: 

A white room that is equipped with a 40 inch television. There will be 10 or 20 small mirrors attached to fishing lines, which will be hanged around the room and a projector that projects a movie of a demon lurking from within the mirror leering hard at the woman in the room. The projector will be placed behind the viewer. There will be an additional wall of plastic that builds a wall, creating a smaller space for the viewer and the television. This is to invade personal space of the viewers, creating a sense of alertness to whatever roams behind the plastic wall. The television will show a woman strapped on the floor and surrounded by mirrors, trying very hard not to look at the mirror. A demon lurks restlessly from inside the mirror trying to catch the attention of the women. She is the key to his freedom. The woman keeps whispering to herself not to look at the mirrors. For whenever the woman accidentally looks at the mirror, the demon, which is dressed in black, gets to enter the world. Once the demon enters the real world, the whole room will become dark. Then, the sound of horror will be played.

Project History:

Mirrors are the doorways through which Death enters the world. Stare long enough into a mirror, and you will see Death at work." — Jean Cocteau.

It is known that demons or apparition in the Superstitious world predicted how demon uses any kind of mediums to enter the real world. It could be an item, time, or through human or animals.

Demons live in an outworldly realm and they need a portal to enter our own reality. Many people believe a portal can be opened with the use of an Ouija Board. Other portals could be in our own being, paranoid schizophrenia could be a link to altered mental states that may be connected to a strong psychic ability, such as LSD took many people in an altered state of consciousness that may open an inner portal within ourselves, that may allow a demon to inhabit our bodies.

In tribal societies it is the belief that ones reflection is actually ones soul. And by exposing ones soul it is made vulnerable to evil influences and even death. It is believed that mirrors are tools in which souls may be stolen for evil purposes. Mirrors have been used as tools to increase clairvoyance and/or to gain knowledge of past lives. All class levels have used mirrors to tell their futures. From the middles ages to the 19th century, mirrors have been used by everyone including Catherine de Medici and Henry IV (Guiley, 372).
