When We Meet, We Change

My project explores the influence of peoplefeelings and connections between people.
 The most important thing that influence space is your company - the people with who you are there with.  

I use colored light as a metaphor for energy people embody. If I shine two different lights onto you my red might mix with your blue to create a new atmosphere, one that shifts when others — say, green — join in. What interests me isn’t the light itself, but the spaces and moods these combinations create.

In my sessions, I shine two colors together to explore how they blend, how yellow turns green when mixed, just as people change depending on who they’re with. Others influence how we feel, act, and even see ourselves.

In the first round of sessions, I photographed participants and asked how they felt and what the lights evoked. But I realized the photos alone didn’t capture the essence of our exchanges

So in the second round, I invited people into my home, spending an evening with each. The process became more like a conversation or therapy session — recorded on video and later edited into 15-minute highlights that reveal the most meaningful moments.
