Eye ideas

At the moment I am working with infrared photography. With this I try to have an observational and perceptive approach.

I'm also reading about scientific imaging and objectivity, since this is connected to the history of infrared.

But I am not sure yet how this will be integrated into my own practice though, because I also see the infrared as a metaphor for the unconscious and as a tool that is able to see-through.

For the Eye project I am considering thermal imaging or night vision I already have a thermal camera and a night vision camera.

Subject wise I will probably collaborate with a friend who is a dancer. She is doing a master's research about how her body movements are related to her memories and how her body is in a way a cage for these memories.

Movement is already an important part in my images (mainly in combination with slow shutter speed) so this could be an interesting collaboration.
