OF HORIZONS AND MIRAGES: seamless, shapeless, scaleless
Dishita Turakhia 

Inspired by how our vision perceives edges, shapes, and depths to create visual percepts of horizons and mirages, i.e. things that do not exist in reality, I have created this video installation. I invite the viewer on a journey of their visual perception, starting from an edge, to perceiving a shape, to finally a form with depth. Our vision system processes information so fast, that it takes extra effort on behalf of the viewer to pause and be conscious and aware of how their vision system processes the visual information so that the brain can make perceptual inferences.
