‘I Am Your Outside’
∞ + ∞ + ∞
In this collection of work Kristina explores aspects of interpretation and communication. She sets up interactive installations and organises collaborative projects that invite viewers to respond to an image or scene, allowing for a subject to be viewed from multiple perspectives.
In ‘I Am Your Outside’ participants were invited to write a response to the work and then attached it to the installation until the structure was entirely covered and the scene inside no longer visible, allowing new viewers to see only other people’s interpretations of what existed inside.
In ‘Say What You See’ over 100 people from an area in North London were invited to write a response to a collection of 12 drawings. Responses were then collated into 12 books and exhibited in the local area, allowing for the full range of responses to be viewed and compared.
