AR u ready?



Kezya Anatha, “I” in Identity, 2020

This AR Experience showcases one individual’s confession, or a ‘manifesto’.Just as there are two sides to a coin, there is more than one side or face to a person as humans are complex and intricate beings. This is evident in the way that they look or present themselves differently according to the situations and conditions they are in. These different sides and faces as perceived by others are affected by variables such as age, gender, cultural and ethnic backgrounds, occupation and more. Essentially, they are ‘performed’ to feature only the best side despite how an individual truly is or feels. Nonetheless, all those seemingly random and scattered ‘sides’ and ‘faces’ (be it shown or hidden from the public) ultimately coalesce in one embodiment of an individual. In other words, they make up a person’s identity.The idea of collating and compiling various kinds of images in different media and techniques into an image demonstrates how all those varied elements and variables construct an identity. This project aims to introduce a fresh perspective of what makes a person. Moreover, it is created in the hope that more people will come to an understanding that there is always more to a person, than simply their ‘face’.
