Unprovoked Kindness

DESCRIPTION :
We often receive acts of kindness without any reason, and it’s a wonderful thing. It happens because people choose to be kind to you without any ulterior motive. In our lives, there are beings who offer kindness without any expectation, such as the beautiful sky, clean air, lovely flowers, or kind-hearted individuals. We aim to capture these acts of kindness in imagery and use them as materials to create a real-time mosaic effect on photos taken in a photo booth format. While the booth captures images of people, pixel-like images stack upon them. The artist, having experienced numerous acts of unprompted kindness, wishes to extend such kindness to the audience through this photo booth.
