I am interested in the moment when we stop seeing someone as a person and begin to see them through the function we expect them to perform.
Sometimes, when faced with other people’s requests, questions, or expectations, I catch myself wondering: how do they see me right now? As a navigator, an information desk, or a source of entertainment? In these moments, in my imagination, I literally turn into an object.
In my work, a person takes on elements of the function imposed on them by someone else, or the function they themselves feel reduced to.
