"Immersion"

ARTIST	Stephanie Soo
YEAR	2011
MATERIAL	Digital Prints
DIMENSIONS	Faces: 7" x 7", Game Worlds: 14" x 14"
DESCRIPTION	Immersion focuses on the idea that any game can force the player to be sucked into an alternate world. Regardless of the game, whether it be simple or complex, each game has the ability to captivate the player. MORE... Immersion uses photographs that illustrate the player focused on a computer game as well as screenshots of the game with the player reflected back into each player's specific game. Although each pair of images is of a different game, the connecting feature is each player’s expression of being completely absorbed into the computer screen. Through their expressions, this piece is able to present the relationship between the virtual world and the player’s reaction to being drawn into the virtual world. << BACK
