This project explores how reality and perception are connected. To this end, photos, 3D design and digital elements were combined. In this way, an augmented reality was created. The process began with photographs, which were then supplemented by a three-dimensional layer. The additional dimension was adapted to the original photographs to achieve a seamless fusion of reality and virtuality, resulting in a visual representation that blurs the boundaries between objective reality and subjective reality.

The concept is inspired by the idea of context. It shows how circumstances and emotions are connected and how they influence our understanding of reality. The project makes this interplay visible by transforming inner emotions into outer forms. The mixture of analogue photos and computer-generated 3D elements shows how complex perceptions are. Elements merge with their surroundings, just as people merge with their emotions. The subtle and distinctive movements of the model reinforce the visual language of emotions.
