AMAUROTIC
The word, “amaurotic”
means blind. Amaurosis is partial or complete loss of vision, especially
without an externally perceptible change in the eye. In the video work, we used
a huge magnifying glass as a tool. The goal was to see inside my belly without
opening my body, for which a magnifying glass obviously cannot be a functional
device. The magnifying glass was just a symbol of the searching gaze. The
intention to open the body was indicated by invisible hand movements behind the
magnifying glass. Thanks to the camera setup and interference, my partner Csaba
Szeredi was able to take a recording that evokes an endoscopic shot. Thanks to
the magnifying glass and the camera lenses, in the end I managed to explore my
guts without opening my body.
