Facing nausea ever inward.

This lantern serves to see within. It rotates on a swaying axis; ever inward. A single light-source illuminates a body subjected to it’s own handling.
Operating it invokes dizzieness. Performed in a dark space, it is almost impossible to synchronize the sense of motion with a visual reference. Inside the object, hanging from the ceiling, one can only see what is on the inside due to the lighting.
A mantra of ‘I am moving’ befriends the spirit of vertigo. Engagement creates opportunities to briefly transcend beyond the nauseating nature of this self inflicted state.
