This Feels Right, Until… brings shared internal, often intangible sensations of attraction, love, lust, and attachment into a representative, quantifiable and tangible state. The artwork plays with the definitions of “feeling” and the tensions between love as it is felt and love as a subject of analysis, accepting both simultaneously. The experience of love is complex. When viewed through an analytical lens, these euphoric feelings can be translated into a dance between ten biochemicals and two emissions: Oxytocin, Serotonin, Adrenaline, Dopamine, Norepinephrine, Vasopressin, Histamine, Acetylcholine, Estradiol, Testosterone, Semen and Saliva.
They might feel otherworldly to us, yet they are central to our sense of ourselves and of others.
