Gif: Odin

The eye sees as it is seen. The frame and border between inside and outside have been removed in this image, and the viewer does not know which side they is really standing on. This image is reminiscent of Cyclopes, the one-eyed giant of Greek mythology, and Odin, the one-eyed god of the Scandinavian people. The eye of Horus for the Egyptians and the open eyes of the ancient Sumerian characters. Western classical art has always tried to imitate the function of the eye by showing depth and creating illusions in space. While modern art has doubted the authenticity of what the eye sees from the very beginning. The mirror reflects the world without intervention or intention, but the eye selects and personalizes the images. From this point of view, the eye can be seen as a limited and weak aperture and as a false mirror, its competence and ability to understand the world can be challenged! •• PárisA Odin November 11, 2023/ 6:00
