Work

Pinkusevich creates large-scale multi-faceted installation work that presents viewers with visually immersive environments.[2] In an interview, she explains: "Conceptually, my work is concerned with this fragmented vision of architectural layering and perceptions of the built environment. Formally, the work is engaged with the direct experience of the viewer through "perspectival" illusion and spatial perception that play with the subconscious and cognitive understanding of space. By breaking logical perspectives I create illusions of impossible spaces, non-places that shift the viewpoint to the panoptic."[3]
