Rafael Lozano – Hemmer – Superficial Tension

on


The piece Superficial Tension by Canada based Mexican artist Rafael Lozano-Hemmer is a different take on new media art based on surveillance. In this case nobody is really watching the viewer or spectator, but a plasma screen containing the image of a huge eye that through a video-based tracking system detects the movement of the public and follows it the spectator feels as if he or she was being watched.
