Bathtub, Aliki Margarita Stroumpouli
Gold-plated bronze and prints on paper
“Although we encounter eyes all the time, when we begin noticing them and become unsettled by them, that’s when they start embodying the presence of a desire, something that we can’t predict or negotiate.”
Darian Leader
I shape the intense presence of the unwanted gaze through unsuspecting objects; address the fear of being scrutinised by the mystery of the concealed gaze.
I am shocked by the invasion into private space.
I confront difficulty conceiving my own image. Do I have to visualise it through the way someone else looks at me?
Aiming to address the uncanny.
