Hand-eye is a wearable artwork that makes seeing into an active and reaching sense. It uses video cameras and lcd screens mounted in hand built wooden apparatus. The cameras fixed to the wrist of the wearer replace their normal vision – the left eye sees the left hand view and the right the right hand view. As well as placing sight into an area of movement each eye is independent and so also gives the wearer the ability to be able to see in two directions at once.
