Katie Barger, Foild
Foild is a screen installation produced by flickering between two stereoscopic images and phases of black. Stereoscopic images are two images tekn consecutively from slightly different angles (left eye and right eye). When viewed through a stereoscope, these two images are joined together to make one image that has an active depth. This phenomena can also be perceived by cross- eyed viewing of two stereoscopic images. This piece examines how active depth can be manipulated in order for the naked eye to perceive depth in flat photographs without the aide of a stereoscope and without the act of cross-eyed viewing.
