We currently exist in an era characterized by introspection and deep contemplation. RUMINATING #02, an immersive interactive installation, delves into the repetitive nature of negative thinking known as rumination.
​
This artwork features four circular-based images that vividly express the emotions and adverse consequences associated with rumination. The images are projected from top to bottom, enveloping participants within the installation.
​
Human expression serves as the primary mode of interaction, allowing real-time recognition of participants' facial expressions. As their expressions turn negative, the projected images gradually distort, mirroring the inner turmoil of rumination. Conversely, when participants display positive expressions, the images slowly regain a state of tranquility and calmness.
The installation seeks to raise awareness about rumination, a psychological phenomenon that profoundly impacts our lives but is often not well understood.
