Reclamation of Focus I
This immersive installation mixes everyday physical environments with cues that enable the subconscious mind to register a space as safe and remove those suggesting otherwise, thereby freeing up the viewers' mind to explore without feeling overwhelmed. By meticulously thinking about the elements forming a living space, Seget questions the way our mind has had to quickly adapt to the artificial environments of urban areas in the past 300 years.
