Children Visual Perception [videography project, 2005]


This video has been presented & exhibited by Sigit Kusumawijaya & Avianti Armand in "Secondary Skin" Budi Pradono Architect Exhibition, Jakarta 2005



Children Visual Perception



We believe that children have their own spatial conception and it has a very close relationship to their visual perception. Children from kindergarten to elementary school have certain height different from grown ups. Although it matters a lot, we - grown ups, often forget about it.

This short movie was taken in different places and situation, from an angle we assume belong to average 7 year old kids, maybe about 110 cm to 120 cm from the ground. For grown ups, this, hopefully, can be used as a simple tool to understand different point of views. And for children, they have to be given this notification that they are important.

- public bathroom
