TRACKER is a new robotic work about power and surveillance in contemporary society. In Margaret Seymour’s work, three ‘video objects’ follow people around the gallery. Each moving object also shows an interactive image of feet walking. Shot in the style of a film noir, the work examines a contemporary issue but uses surveillance techniques more commonly seen in movies and spy novels.
Like a shady private detective or perhaps an unwanted suitor, the TRACKERs tail the viewer but also try to keep their distance.
