This artwork implifies the artist's work, and shows the later work (2004) as presented in the book.

 

"Eye Contact" is the first piece of the ShadowBox series of interactive displays with a built-in computerized tracking system. This piece shows eight hundred simultaneous videos of people lying down, resting. As soon as a public member is detected, his or her presence triggers the miniature video portraits to wake up: hundreds of people simultaneously turn to look at the visitor directly, creating an uncanny experience that questions who is the observer and who is the observed.
