INTROSPECTION ILLUSION.
BUNMI AGUSTO, FINE ARTIST, CENTRAL SAINT MARTINS (2020).
Introspection Illusion is based on a cognitive bias of the same name which describes how people perceive their own actions as rational because they can examine the situation through introspection but are unable to do that with other’s actions and thus views those actions as irrational. Each subject’s face is superimposed onto another’s silhouette to advise viewers to put oneself into another person’s perspective and try to understand both them and their background.
