The author’s installations explore the relations between physical space and perceptual space. The reduction of architecture-concerned with the molding of physical three-dimensional space—to images—two-dimensional visual representations—can be investigated as part of these relations. The author discusses her installations by tracing the historical path that brought us to the connection between a three-dimensional world and its two-dimensional representations. Perspective renderings, false perspective and trompe I’oeil imagery are reinterpreted through the use of contemporary technological media, such as computer graphics and video.
