Ephemeral Dualities (2024)
Moving image, Green screen suit
1 min 38 seconds
In the video, the green-screen figure is split across two temporalities: the immediate and the delayed, the real and its digital mirror. It emerges from the gaps between frames, then divides, functioning independently before eventually collapsing back into the interval from which it came—repeating this cycle without resolution.
The piece centres on the instability of the “self” within technical imagery: the body is no longer a single origin but is fragmented into retrievable, switchable units. It becomes a composite of temporal fragments, each capable of being summoned, displaced or overwritten.
