Media is connection. The world is connected because media transport information from point to point, enabling the unknown to known. Media can be modified, translated or reinterpreted, and consequently the substantial information it carries became alternated. Light is one kind of media, it connects darkness with brightness, it transports light to the invisible area, transform unknown to known. Light can be reflected, or distorted with refraction. Similarly, If two spaces are connected because there is an entrance. We found similarities among Media, Light and the Entrance. Our installation intends to interprete the embedded code lies behind the three.
“Modern media have caused a confusing blur between true and untrue, real and fake, real life and virtual. The messages they convey often contain a biased perspective, and can even mislead you.” Responding this observation , we pull out questions: In between reality and illusion, is their a threshold? If reality in unknown and ambiguous, can we as people use light to illuminate reality and reveal reality? Might the portal itself be a misleading media, guiding us to the void?
