I am MUSED.
ON VIEW THRU NOVEMBER 25, 2023: Multimedia artist Pavlina Vagioni transforms the TANK Space into an illusory sea, echoing the ever-changing forms of the mythical Proteus, the shape-shifting sea deity from Greek mythology, through a dynamic interplay of light, darkness, sound, and three-dimensional forms. Simultaneously, the work delves into the territory of the collective unconscious, pulling references from analytical psychology and Carl Jung’s theories while rendering a commentary on the “Proteus effect” in our digital age—the influence of one’s virtual avatar on real-world behavior.
