We want to develop an Interactive Artwork which captures the dominating clothing pattern of the wearers, then replicates and projects it back into the space, camouflaging the dominant wearer and engulfing all others in the pattern. The viewer can then enter the Installation and, using hand movements, erase the mapping, revealing the dominant wearer. This artwork connects to a sense of identity and awareness of digital trace, correspondingly relating to the physical world of clothing choices and decisions around making yourself visible.
