‘Dream Machine’ interactive sculpture
Make a fist in the eye of the beast and whisper your dream to have it interpreted through stream-diffused images.
This piece was made of computer machine, fabric, and Soto House foliage, intertwined in a living dead form.
The microphone listens to your voice and displays your incantation upon the screen looking up at you, while the imagery of the spell is displayed upon the wall in front of you. The wandering eye follows you and reforms in the image of your body.
This eye of the beast is cradled in an organic form sculpted and printed by Paul Plastic Rosas
Visuals conjured by Derek Holguin through spellbooks of Touchdesigner
This piece was made for the exhibition in collaboration with Sueños Portales at Human Resources Gallery in October 2024
