The Motions of Memory
The Motions of Memory is a personal visual exploration into the process of memory and remembering. The project, inspired by my father's accident in January 2011, looks at how our ability to remember affects our personality through memories. This piece is a self-evaluation of personal memories through key objects and events. The project exhibits a selection of time-lapse videos, fusing together stills photography and video using slow transitions creating a series of meditative quasi photographs. The ice interacts with the object on a truly intimate level, immersing it as it freezes. As the ice melts, it portrays the memory retreating into the depths of the mind, leaving only the object to trigger recollection.
