Jennifer Steinkamp

Blurb from San Jose Museum of Art:
Jennifer Steinkamp’s colorful digital projections envelop museum visitors in a three-dimensional sensory experience. Steinkamp, a Los Angeles-based installation artist, works with 3-D animation in order to explore ideas about architectural space, motion, and phenomenological perception. Influenced by the work of Oscar Fischinger, Marcel Duchamp, Bruce Nauman, Hollis Frampton, and others, Steinkamp uses visual illusions to generate a dialogue about the nature of cognitive experience and the psychophysical limitations of human perception. Her manipulation of images exposes the shift between objective and virtual points of view, thereby encouraging viewers to contemplate perceptual and philosophical notions of the real.
