Infra-Image – Cut and Paste (N25°4'2.09", E121°31'38.57") explores how surfaces actively participate in image construction through the simulation of optical traces.

Mirrors were used to split and redirect a blank projection light onto two opposing walls. The paint within the illuminated areas was stripped away, exposing the underlying construction material. The splitting of the projection light changed the logic of image perception, making it contingent on how each surface responded to the act of light division—simulating optical traces of defocus, fragmentation, and misalignment.

Instead of passively receiving illumination, the walls actively engaged in the construction of the image by responding to the division of light.
