Invisibility displays Weerasethakuls continued interest in the issue of perception and memory The installation takes threads from his recent films Cemetery of Splendor and Fever Room both of which feature the same actors Here he takes them deeper into an imaginary world and ponders the future of shared consciousness The videos depict a landscape where the protagonists are confined to a room along with the viewers With no way out they infiltrate each others dreams Invisibility mirrors the troubled state of Thailands politics It proposes a decayed vision of the future where one needs to constantly evade reality The viewing experience shifts between seeing and not seeing fact and fiction space and void
