VOYEUR'S SERVER ROOM


The Server room of the office is transformed into a space for surveillance and voyeurism.

The need for security inside the office is critiqued by modifying the space into one for spying instead. The servers and DVD players surround the space where a wire-covered elevated chairs with a big console allows the invisible woman to control not only what is going on in the 42 floors of Tower 42 but also in the 1/2 part where she lives.

This space is a link between both the real space of the office inside the narrative and the dream space of Nora where the invisible woman inhabits.

Here the invisible woman is a spy into the life of the office and is able to see the spaces she transforms. This encloses a paradox: Nora imagines the invisible woman and is then spying on both herself and the invisible woman, so both characters reflect each other. The invisible woman is Nora's own projection, or is Nora the own projection of the invisible woman? Is the invisible woman spying or being interrogated?
