CTRL–Other is a series of visual perception glitches.

It’s about those moments when you’re no longer sure you are who you think you are. When the familiar face in the mirror looks distorted. When the world suddenly appears not as it should. When the body feels less like a body and more like an interface. As if you’re living in “other user” mode.

It’s not about the future, and it’s not science fiction. It’s about a very real feeling:
when we live in the same time but seem to exist on different layers of reality — and switch between them every day.

In these images, the colors are inverted, but in essence — it’s the point of view that’s inverted.

Inversion is not an effect, it’s a feeling everyone knows:
when you look in the mirror and something is just… off.
When you see someone familiar, but don’t recognize them.
When the world behaves normally — but you don’t.

These images are like a dream you can’t shake. Or a glitch that somehow holds a truth.

CTRL–Other as a gesture and a diagnosis.
The name isn’t just a title.
It’s a command you give yourself: switch to Other.

CTRL–Other is both ironic — like a keyboard shortcut — and serious — like a state of mind.
It’s about refusing to choose between the real and the unreal. Between irony and belief.
Between body and image.

You’re not supposed to understand “what’s going on here.”
You’re supposed to feel that something has shifted.
