I wanted to interact with the viewers directly, and so I came up with two separate projects for the two days i spent there. The first day i set up a take away 'Free Mielie Pap' Stall and on the second day A 'Magical photo booth' where people could have their picture taken with a projected background.
Our booth won the award for best creative stand at the Indaba.

how dull and boring. you project images that are not your own!!! hello? copyright, integrity, brains!?!
Dear anon.
I consciously chose those images as they are some of my favourites from art history or some other random pics i thought could create a cool atmosphere. I also chose images i thought other people could relate to, as the artwork is about my interaction with them as well as their imagination within the photo booth. I wanted to create a space where they could be something else, even if it only existed in their minds. I hope that brings some clarity to your frustration.
