Overview

3. Wax Plates



  
The wax plates were initially meant to work as a background to the video. But after testing I realised that the videos lost a lot of their contrast doing so. It also distracted somewhat from the image. Additionally, I decided to go for two videos. Therefore, I switched to screens and did not intend to use the wax plates further. 
But when looking at my images I realized they could provide a haptic quality the rest of the installation couldn’t. Furthermore, thematically they fit with the images as they were part of the process.
