Augenlicht // the refraction of light
The ability to see is one of our most used senses
and one we rely on the most.
Yet, in the bustle of our everyday lives we forget about its fragility.
After being wrongly diagnosed with an eye sickness for the past 10 years
I’m embarking on a artistic, visual journey documenting and overcoming
my own fears of losing my eyesight.
work in progress, 2018 -
Refraction of light can be seen in many places in
our everyday life.
It makes objects under a water surface appear closer than they really are.
It is what optical lenses are based on,
allowing for instruments such as glasses, cameras, binoculars, microscopes,
and the human eye.
