eye feels was
initially conceived as the opening scene of a longer animation that was never
fully realised. These animated
eyeballs are drawn from Sally Miller Gearhart’s unpublished short story “Hello, Body” (1993). Here, floating sensuously in an infinite pool of metallic fluid, they appear evocative yet
strangely without context.
The fragmentary nature of eye feels is perhaps what has inspired the many adaptations and re-mixes that it has since undergone.

eye feels was first exhibited at Roaming Room, London (2017). It has been presented as part of GUSH Vol. 1, an event curated by Jamila Johnson-Small in 2017, and in POEKHALI! at Bergen Kunsthall (curated by Eva Rowson in 2018). Remixes have appeared in performance-lectures, including I AM SF at CCA Derry~Londonderry and Ormston House, Limerick (2017).
