Student Narrative
“Waking or asleep, Thou of death must deem Things more true and deep Than we mortals dream” -extract from To A Skylark by Percy Bysshe Shelley The book asks viewers to reflect on the disconnection between the physical world and the mental world; in this instance, the limit of human physical facial expression as oppose to the depth of feelings. Happy or sad, the ranges of emotion shown is limited purely to how much the face can contort. Viewers are asked to “look inside” the closed book.
