LIGHT ECHOES Series
I have consistently focused on moving images throughout my practice. I approach each work first and foremost as visual art, and I am less interested in narrative than in the forms of the objects that appear within the frame and the ways in which colour shifts along their contours. I construct each piece by closely observing how lines and planes drift over time, and how neighbouring colours bleed into and blend with one another.
LIGHT ECHOES is a series that grows out of this moving-image practice. I extract moments that have stayed with me from my past video works as individual frames, then rework their colour and composition to transform them into still images. By fixing forms and colours that once changed continuously within the flow of a video onto a single plane, I explore how passing time can take on a visible form, and how far a fleeting instant can be visualised as a kind of eternity within a single moment.
Each work in this series is a fragment selected from the countless frames that pass through my moving images, and at the same time an image reconstituted as a concentration of light cut out from the flow of time. While stripping away as much narrative and before-and-after motion as possible, I am interested in how far the faint movement and rhythm that once lay behind the footage can still surface through colour and composition alone. By deliberately reconstructing moving images as still images, I interrupt time that has been continuously flowing and fix only that cross-section onto a flat surface as visual art. That act itself lies at the core of this series.
