Luxury is looking through the eyes of a child
designed by: Doreen Tan

In the process of growing up into an adult, we have become more self-conscious and that is when we sometimes lose to resist the usage of innate abilities such as curiosity and imagination. The societal pressure of being practical has forced us to store away these “unrealistic” fantasies as they are perceived as naiveté, and in the process of doing so, we have unlearned important skills that were once dominant when we were a child.

This installation, by controlling the condensation process, provides a piece of canvas where one is encouraged to use imagination and doodle with the finger. This arouses past memories of naive gestures e.g. drawing on condensations on windows and glass panels when we were once bold and spirited.
