In the Presence of Images

I capture an image. I forget the image. I attempt to remember. Nothing. The images sole purpose was to help me remember, yet it cant. Has it failed, or have I? I begin to speculate how the forgotten image functions in the present, liberated from its associated past.

Through the use of digitally archived images that have been forgotten since their capture, In the Presence of Images is a travelling exhibition that explores the digital revolution and its potential effects on memory. Through the processing of photographs and videos sourced from my personal digital archive, images are created to form a space for discussion, contemplation, and speculation, encouraging the viewer to question the capacities of forgotten imagery and to become cognizant of the technologies we entrust with more and more data everyday.
