DETAILS OF THE WORK
AWARDS 2020 SILVER
When you are gazing at your significant other, what are you thinking about?
At the moment when each other’s images are transmitting to each other’s brain through each other’s optic nerves, what kind of emotions reside there?
The players slip into “the glimpse that occurs between people gazing at each other at a close distance.”
Then, they go around each other by “gazing” and consider their existence.
VR HMD is required for the ultra experience of the work. Learn how to experience it here.

The unique observation of the eyes, which is only possible with VR, is well incorporated into the expression.
While there are many VR works out there, this work has an approach that is unique to it and led to its evaluation.Jury

I thought the theme of getting into the brain and nerves of people when they stare at each other was very original and wonderful. Through this work, I was able to see that "gazing at each other" is made up of perceptions, interpretations, thoughts, and feelings about the subject. I also felt again that the nature of the gaze can vary, and that it can be replaced by gaze and seeing/being seen. Also, although this work is set up as "looking at each other with a loved one," I thought it was wonderful that the images of the people in the work were not limited to gender or sex.
