Platon's mirror. A perception-aesthetics component and the possibility of a novel type of image generation through computer tomography
Dusseldorf-based media artist Mischa Kuball is among the few artists who has consistently understood light's (socio-)political dimensions and used the media accordingly in numerous works and installations. In his new exhibition project platon's mirror, two additional aspects are included: a perception-aesthetics component, as well as the possibility of a novel type of image generation through computer tomography. This gives rise to highly topical issues within art, and for it. Within the project, light politics and media politics are re-negotiated. The idea for platon's mirror is based on one of the most influential stories within European literature: Plato's cave allegory.
