Private area at the border of Egopolis - Error and Co.

The present work is based on my observation of social pressure and stereotypes, and the damage these can have on individual existence. We become targets shortly after our birth. We can choose our path: to belong to the group of the majority or the group of the minority.

This is every individual’s decision, and it actually depends on our personality, everyone chooses for herself.

It is important not to let go of our fate. It is also essential and indispensable to concentrate on and pay attention to our inner voice; sometimes this can be achieved through the strengthening of faith.

ERRORS: Lack of concentration, or absence of observation of the inner voice can all be errors. Submission and assimilation because of social pressure can be an error. Categorization of society can be an error.

However, the individual’s extreme isolation can be an error as well. What then is the right solution...?

The purpose of this interactive installation was to assess and collect the social errors experienced and encountered by participants in this work.

The following question was displayed on the computer screen: „Egy szóval, Ön szerint mi a hiba? / Jedným slovom, čo je chyba? / What is error in one word?”

Participants chose a word describing an error and defined the position where they thought this word should be placed on the projected work, and pressed Enter to see the final result.
