The Ghost

Instructions:

A silhouette of human body in such a situation and form that we do not expect subconsciously evokes fear and unpleasant feelings. The author has chosen transparent plastic for her depiction of human body. By doing so, she created an illusion of continuous detection/deciphering of a human body lying in space. The borderlines of freakiness within deformation of human shapes are a motif of many positions of the contemporary art. The shape-bound distinguishability only by the reflections of light on the statue surface evokes the appearance of an unreal being – “a ghost”, or a fata-morgana, shaping the “plastic rubbish” lying on the ground suddenly into the form of a lying human body.
