AM I A HOLOGRAM?

Photographic light installation and sound, 13 min 16 s.

Am I a hologram? explores the metaphysical aspect of our reality and invisible worlds.

Is it possible to have an experience in which our own body seems to be located in an irrational space-time?

During certain altered states of consciousness, a person may have the impression of leaving their physical body and traveling to other dimensions or intangible places. Individuals reporting such experiences describe a profound sense of interconnection with natural worlds, non-material realities or deceased beings.

This project is part of an ongoing approach to address certain taboo subjects in our society. Altered states of consciousness, and out-of-body experiences in particular, are often stigmatized and interpreted as forms of psychiatric disorder by medical and scientific institutions. Yet one in ten people report having had such an experience, and it's not uncommon for it to recur several times in a lifetime.

The ambient matter caresses my skin like morning mist.

Textures, sounds

silences, vibrate simultaneously.

Evanescent beings appear on my path.

As I move between these worlds, orifices filled with diamonds of light open up to me.

I harbor these precious moments

each experience like a jewel to be buried

in a continuum of consciousness.
