Sjüün, public space, Sylt, 2017
Use the App SJÜÜN to discover the whole project. (Free download in you App / or Play Store)
The art project SJÜÜN (Sylt Frisian, SJÜÜN, di: eyecatcher, what comes to mind) plays with the imagination of the viewer. Our perception is the direct connection to the world. Through our senses we store various aspects of the surrounding world, we memorize in our retention, our remembrance medium. Whether conscious or unconscious. Our perception space is always individual and always perspective.
