Lightvisions
by Woofer Ten
Location: Woofer Ten
Artist(s): Karo TAK
Date: 12 Mar - 12 Mar 2011

"I'm afraid of the light."
In the safe, inky darkness, she is alone in her skin. She is secure.
She is invisible. so what happens when the lights come on?
She finds comfort in the dark, wrapped in fairy lights, moving, blinking lights. But her body is vulnerable under the cover of darkness. The burden weighs heavy, and she must try to escape the pinpointed darkness. She wants to get away from the darkness, what do you see when you see her? What do you see when you see yourself?
