I N S P I R E D2 0 0 6 K A B K K O N C O N D e n H a a gCamera ObscuraThe effect of the Camera Obscura comes from the diffractionof the light, that passes through the hole, creating a reversedimage on a screen facing the hole. The Camera Obscura wasused extensively by artists from the Renaissance period toproject, on screens or canvas, images that served as outlinesto make drawings or paintings. In that time big progress wasmade in the study of perspective and for two centuries theperspection research was limited to just copying the projectedimage, not to mention the changes that came later with thearrival of the Photocamera, the Cinematograph of the Lumierebrothers, the Television. Leonardo Da Vinci himself, studyingNowadays, our image of the world is seen and perceivedthrough an objective almost more than through actual experience.The sculpture Lightspeaker is a metaphor for the returnto the root of things, and to the simplicity and the complexityand static block and the realty around it is depicted by thesun, in continuous mutation. The produced reversed image isa symbol of our internal space and the perception of the worldwhich changes in relation to the macro and microcosmos, theinternal and external space, the architecture of the mind andthe architecture of nature.The image on the right is the projection of the Malieveld parkand the railway station in front of the Royal Academy of DenHaag in the Netherlands.page 11
