These scopes reference a fascination with a childhood toy. I loved kaleidoscopes. I reworked a kaleidoscope, removing the decorative elements. so that it could view the world. I used this lens with my camera and eventually placed it inside a steel scope. The scope was located on various places where it became an ironic twist on the old tourist scope. It creates a fragmented view of the world and asks the viewer to observe carefully and engage in the puzzle of a changing world.
