During the adolescence period physical contact often becomes a taboo subject, at the same time being a moment of discovering one’s own physicality. The unawareness connected with formative years opens the way to new meanings and interpretations of behaviours known to us.
In the project, consisting of a degree piece and a minor degree, I focus on the physical contacts that occur intentionally and more inadvertently during physical education lessons. As an impartial observer, I return to the days spent in the school gym, analyse male figures reduced to the role of objects to be watched, and examine the relations and tensions occurring between them.
The main part of the degree piece is a multi-channel video projection – five recorded 45-minute videos using the green screen technology that are intended not only for individual reception, but should also be perceived as a composition of interacting pictures. This specific set of digital sculptures focuses the viewer’s attention on capturing the motion in breathing but static projections.
