EROTICISM
Rirkrit
Tiravanija has directly engaged his audience. The artist attempted to create spaces for
socializing and interaction between people; the public was able to experience
art through pleasure and conversation. These all-inclusive participatory
works enable gallery visitors to become a part of the installation, In
comparison with the similar sense of erotic, penetrating the separate public
and private spheres and showing that “what you do in the private can also be in
a sense public.” Interested in the social role of art, Tiravanija brings people
from different backgrounds and cultures together. Of course, there is harmony
and there is chaos, and that is very true in an existence in the social
structure. A lot of things happen externally from it that affects what
happens internally. How one approaches it, how one thinks of it shifts. It’s the act of doing things together;
where you, the viewer, can be part of the experience by the act of simply
eradicate the boundary between people in the very tangible, immediate way.

EROTICISM
In Sleepwalkers, the installation
entices the viewer to engage in a type of social interaction with the film
screening where the public and private spheres collide. The MoMA walls became
animated during this nighttime installation, as the nocturnal movements of five
city inhabitants simultaneously were projected and impacted the viewers’ sense
of restraint as if they were watching at one’s activity silently. As one walks
around the piece, the individual images split, change, and coalesce around the
viewer’s vantage point. The installation had no narrative just like a body’s
gesture. The actors serve as visual icons on the screens are conveyed through
understood actions. An optical displacement occurred, the viewer is active
likewise welcome to swim in an open sea of images, at the same time, the viewer wanders the gallery alone, engaged in
their own isolated experience. As a means of collapsing the narratives,
isolating specific moments. For erotic moment, people can feel a tempo in a
physical way; they can really communicate a pulse, a rhythm. The individual and
the collective experience become embodied across his cinematic environments.
