In the Line of Sight

A sight line takes advantage of different perspectives based on angles. (Stewart 2012) This idea is based on the premise that depending on the perspective a viewer takes, a different image will be seen. This is a bit like how we as human observers experience life itself. Although the same situation may happen to many different people, depending on each unique perspective everyone will view it differently. This does not mean that any one perspective is necessarily right or wrong, merely different. "In the Line of Sight" is an art piece in France which utilizes this concept to project images made from flashlights onto a wall. Depending on where in the room the person views the artwork, they will see a different conglomeration of shapes projected onto the wall.
