More info

The so-called Neglect Syndrom is a diagnosis when the patients neglect the left side of their bodies and the left side of their field of view. They don’t know that they are actually doing it. In this work, the body of the individual performs the state in which is situated ‘the body of the society’. This visualized situation is implicitly political. Neglecting the certain problems of contemporary societies is tied to the hegemony of liberalism. Extreme centrism generates blind spots which then tries to cover up with phantasmata that protect the status quo.
