THE UNSEEN, an original creation for the (UN)SCENE ART FAIR, March 4-8 (Armory Arts Week) at 549 W 52nd Street, is a site-specific augmented reality installation which reveals the space as it existed in its raw form before being built out for exhibition.  With the creation of a new mobile app which uses image-recognition, and geo-locational technology to load different kinds of media directly to people’s smartphones, we open up spatiotemporal possibilities for dance and place it in the hands of the spectator - effectively transfiguring the space into a living archive, investigating ideas of mediation, memory and space.  Part time-capsule, part platform, part memorial, this participatory installation can challenge the way we think about time- and site-specificity.
