Description

The idea of the construction resulted from my personal need to have a safe space in which I could understand myself / reflect upon my emotions / face my own weaknesses. Eye contact with other person can communicate much, but our own look remains unnoticed to us. My inspiration was a visit to a psychotherapist, who told me about his patients who are often unable to look in their own eyes in the mirror in his room (it is one of the exercises). My installation aims to enable the recipient to notice his own emotions, to give him the space for confrontation with them and to accept them.
