Other than Yourself - An Investigation between Inner and Outer Space

The personal space provides us with a location in the world, by marking a barrier that distinguishes and can protect the individual from the outside world. Privacy can represent a disengagement from others, a nonrelatedness, but also rests upon the paradox that this space must be provided by others, that it relies on the recognition and affirmation by others (audience, viewer). It is part of a repertoire of a person's protective and communicative measures, a "potential space" that allows for the creation of shared realities, realities that belong neither to the self nor to the other.

Referencing privacy as space of refuge establishes a form of territoriality, a sense of borders, an inside that does not necessarily form a "container"; a space that is neither external object nor internal experience, but is constituted in terms of actions and meanings. Space in this context is understood as practice: the meanings that are attached to places and the spatial order are not fixed or invariable but are invoked in the context of usage and language and are most notably defined by the position of the viewer.
