An artist called Matthew Mohr has created a 14ft-ft 3D human head made from ribbons of LED screens. In the back of the neck is a photo booth capable of taking 3D pictures. Once a visitor has their picture taken, they step out of the booth and their head is displayed on the giant head.
The sculpture addresses the relationship between
self and representation of self, asking
the subject of the portrait to reconsider
presence through magnification. It is intended
to evoke larger discussions around the phenomena
of social media, diversity, and the
power dynamic of public art.
As We
Are is on display now in
the Columbus Convention Center Atrium in Columbus, Ohio.
