Tinker Bell’s Waltz is based on Tinker Bell herself. She is in denial about what her purpose is in life by judging herself through a lens that is not obtainable. Everyday she wishes she could have a different skill despite her breathtaking beauty.
To create a sense of immersion, I’ve edited flashing lights that are intended to be viewed through the mirrors around the room, especially the one placed directly across the video. It is to represent Tinker Bell looking at herself from different perspectives but is never satisfied. My goal for this installation was to challenge the audience to view and reflect over themselves from each angle. Do they like what they see? Are the lights too much?
This is one of my favorite multimedia installations I’ve made! I really wanted to play with color and different editing styles, so I hope people find comfort in the array of colors and lights.
