My Thesis Artwork, created in the midst of the covid pandemic. Echoing themes of isolation, connectedness, and surveillance. 

Manifestation is an interactive puppet and wire sculptural installation using real-time motion tracking in TouchDesigner to trigger puppets, driven by Arduino. The puppet's movements invite the viewer to question their role in the installation and its interaction. The puppets positioned within a wire forest-like environment sit in isolated corners. Isolated but connected by the surrounding trees, the wire forest echoing the collective unconscious.
