PERFECTLY DERIVATED: A HUNDRED APPROACHES TO AN ARTWORK is
a non-scientific experiment aimed at visualizing the assumption of uniqueness by tracing viewers’ diverse approaches to the same artwork, shaped by their individual perspectives.
Engaging 100 volunteers, the project reveals how personal perspectives and skills shaped their attempts to imitate the artwork, with each outcome distinct despite identical conditions. The results highlight endless variation in performing the same task, raising further questions about the factors influencing uniqueness and diversity in viewers' approaches.
​
Three years after completing the video version, I decided to create a book version to avoid its dependence on time. I completed the dummy version in 2025 as part of the book development process.
