APOFENIA has been defined by K.Conrad as the “unmotivated seeing of connections accompanied by a specific feeling of abnormal meaningfulness”.
The project is an investigation into how perceptions determine our subjective reality and the possibility of using imagination, before logic, as a concrete tool for knowledge and intuition.
How do I process and connect the sensory stimuli I receive? How do I recompose them in my mind to create an orderly picture of subjectively fulfilled meaning?
APOPHENIA is also an investigation of the need to listen to the invisible in order to make sense of the visible; an experiment on imaginary contact, giving bodily form to the invisible threads that bind us across distance
