Waking Up And Getting Up Has Never Been Easy, creates an illusion with the construction of an apparatus. When the apparatus is run, a camera films the view down the center of the apparatus. This creates an illusion of traveling between two bed sheets, infinitely. The illusion, (of a never ending bed) is created with the construction of two bed sheets sewn together to create two loops. The sheets are placed on two conveyer belts, and driven in opposite directions to create the effect of the passage through space although the hand and camera are not moving forward. Both the video and apparatus are show together in the gallery. First the viewer encounters the video projected on a large wall. If the viewer looks behind the wall, the apparatus will reveal the illusion.
