idEntity - constant state of flux and transformation

‘Proteus’ works by: Stephen Jaques Def ining one’s identity can be challenging, and discovering a sense of self-reflection in our digitalised era can sometimes take a lifetime.

Factors and conditions that an individual is born with such as ethnic heritage, sex, or one’s body often play a role in def ining one’s identity. However, many aspects of a person’s identity change throughout his or her physical and digital life. People’s experiences can alter how they see themselves or are perceived by others.

“The pieces in the current installation are part of an ongoing project called ‘Proteus’.. The initial idea was to set free the image from the confines of the wall space.

A visual sensation without limits” - STEPHEN JAQUES
