Acrylic, latex, performer
A person zipped into a latex sleeping bag. The bag sealed inside a transparent acrylic game controller, scaled up several times. The controller sits in the middle of the room. You can walk up.
You can tap the shell. You can walk away.The person is still breathing. The latex rises and falls. That is the only real movement in the piece.
The game controller is one of the most comfortably designed objects of this century. It fits the hand. It weighs almost nothing. It is built so you forget you are sending commands into a system.
Now it contains a person.
I am not going to use the word subjectivity. I have put a human and a set of buttons inside the same shell. You decide which one reads as the subject.
