Conceal-Reveal: The installation itself becomes a division between people in either side. The partitions seems to be conceal the insider as if it protect and obscure them however, actually it turns into a revelation of their exposed gesture to the outsider.

Look at the people in both sides in
response to the context effects. It provides the sense of voyeurism; some ones
secretly keep watching other doing some activity silently.

VIDEO 'CONCEAL REVEAL'
POST-PRODUCTION AND SUGGESTIONS
Actual experiment on site, the installation and spotlight position came out to be slightly misplaced so that made a bit blurred and occurred indistinct shadow on the inside, the participant's position. Therefore, some instructor said that "it is not likely to be reveal or clearly expose from inside but what actually happened was the insider tried to be really expose a gesture instead, just in order to show to the outsider intentionally." by this I thought that it might because all the audience knows what they supposed to do at that time in the case of reviewing the installation. Apart from that I agreed in the issue of intention due to the existing site condition which somehow too hidden and not typically used by the pedestrians that much. So if the installation could be moved to more busy circulation traffic, the effect might be more powerful and provide more unintentional gesture from people who often use the space. However I personally chose this site because actually it is a hidden path for some people around such as security guards, some of bicycle rider and the smokers who really occupied the space behind to do their activity on purposes. Maybe if it was placed on the active circulation as the suggestion, the results might turn to be too obvious and somehow people may act intentionally like the instructors did as well.
During the presentation, it was very fun with the instructors and guests who were the participants playing with installation but the audience became too intentionally watched them like seeing a movie due to they sat on the bench nearby so it likely to be watch some performance rather than secretly watching. Lastly I was pleased with the effects as it meant to be. People inside cannot see people outside, they can only see what is going on with them by the shadow. And people outside see the moving activity and keep watching what is going on next until the participants finish their movement.
EROTIC INTERPRETATION
Generally the word erotic often related to
sexuality, sometimes involving sex and relationships. Actually it produced from
a set of emotions, which express from or to some people. It is intimate but
mostly prohibit. It is the contradictory, which also called by the revelation
and concealment of an activity. Hence, the provided sensuality depends on the
position that can be divided by participant(s) and audience. However the Erotic
in which pertain to architecture is the way to add a feeling into a solid
structure, in other word, to engage some action and to involve an emotion into
something considered mundane, emotionless and still. My erotic architecture
project is the mean to emphasize the moment of emotions which people usually
hide and keep it as a secret. In this case ‘Voyeurism’, by experiencing in the
installation, some of your feeling will appearing and revealing naturally as
such focusing on that particular moment and feel the sense clearly likewise
knowing more of yourself. Nevertheless, the part of people will be considered
by their positions. The intervention was the division between people inside and
outside thus to be known as the participant and the audience. Then they could
feel the temporarily internal sensuality that arouses by allurement of
perceptual visibility. They could feel differently in their position, for
instance, participants see only themselves inside whilst being the audience may
watch and wonder what happened in there which cause them the awareness of the
erotic sensibility that enhanced by the erotic architecture itself.
