Dizziness is more than feeling dizzy. Conceptualized as an unpredictable motion, or the illusion of such motion, dizziness unbalances, bodies, systems, and environments. Not solely a theoretical concept, the physicality of the phenomenon is germane. This long-term artistic research highlights dizziness as a phenomenon of sense in terms of physiological or sensory input but also in terms of emotion, orientation, and epistemic sense-making processes. States of dizziness break up the given – be it habits, beliefs, preconceptions, or patterns – creating space and dynamics between established categories, habits, and perceived oppositions.
