Habitación - the number 243, 2007

Peruvian born photographer and performance artist Sergio Zevallos has traveled across the world trying to define the relationship between humans and their environment, and how we relate ourselves through our appearance, body, intention, and movement. Themes of repetition and replication show how our authenticity can become corrupted as we act automatically, simulating natural behavior.

Another prominent theme is motion, and the seemingly endless search for answers. The viewer asks, does mere motion and displacement of matter indicate meaning (or life), and is the meaning of life to simply move through it and experience spaces and sensations? To ease the anxiety of this search, Zevallos creates a false sense of familiarity through blurred and grainy images, replicating memories of places we've never been, but evoking emotions we all know.
