MODULE #6 (POSITION YOURSELF INSIDE A MOVING STRUCTURE) is a modular stage. It was first constructed in the digital space and afterwards transformed back into the physical exhibition room – following strictly its given structural and institutional conditions. MODULE #6 (POSITION YOURSELF INSIDE A MOVING STRUCTURE) provides a usable playground to the audience, a default structure in which the mobility of objects and the positioning of the audience can be renegotiated – as a result the audience experiences different ideas of spatiality, constantly changing with every new visitor entering the exhibition space.
MODULE #6 (POSITION YOURSELF INSIDE A MOVING STRUCTURE) is a virtually designed stage setting which finds its extension/expansion within the [human] body. Not only is the artwork transforming the audience into acting performers – all interacting objects become active performers within a constructed stage scenario.
