What Makes a Room? If the line drawings are about the stuff inside - the container and the contained - the lenticulars negotiate the membrane between the interior and exterior. They translate the image to your specific position in the gallery. So they translate the house to the gallery. Why couldn't I simply have the two images [looking out, and looking in] side by side? My answer is that it would not be physical enough for me, because essentially you get the same set of images from the whole room, so the physicality is missing. The translation would happen in your head, not in your body. So with the lenticulars, I have more control over your position. I’m hoping that there is some sort of sense of simultaneous existence - that’s what I’m interested in.
