Veritas

Veritas is a psychedelic project based on observations of concrete reality which are reconfigured through imagination. The contrast between what is real and what is interpretated is the main concern of the work, with a great emphasis on the viewer’s experience through its installed and projected form.

When talking about reality, the physical space in which the piece is projected must also be considered. By using the gallery’s ceiling as the projected surface, the grid of perception breaks, and in turn, the grid of reality. The seemingly simple action of siting the work above the viewer (as opposed to the norm of being ‘in front of’), allows the observer to enter someone else’s reality through a type of immersion. This is an important and ‘real’ gesture that lies beyond the project or the artist and touches the actions of the audience.

Exhibited at Spazju Kreattiv, in Valletta
