The seeming ineffectiveness of this exercise in locating sight is expressed in the accompanying video, Sites of Perception . Optician, designer and writer Mel Rapp exercises his theory of the intersection of observation, memory, and language by responding, in the vitrine, in writing to Patterson’s ironic images.
