Eye in Eye with the source of light

The current project embodies the artist’s odyssey, transitioning from the fleeting nature of film as a medium to the enduring essence of still imagery. It is a reverse historical path, in which the art of montage —juxtaposing pre-recorded movies in a temporal sequence—is transformed into the realm of collage — piecing together the archival images in a spatial alignment. As if the time-based medium is transmuted into the spatial one.

This artistic process echoes a journey from the temporal flow of a speech, where words emerge and vanish after another, unlike written text which presents all words in a simultaneous, spatial arrangement. In this way, the project not only explores different mediums but also delves into the contrasting natures of time and space in art, thereby weaving a narrative that transcends conventional boundaries.
