Description

A mixture of mediums spanning archive footage, VHS tapes, cell phone interfaces, and abstract visuals amalgamate in this collection, touching on memory, reflection, and mourning. As time progresses, relationships emerge, flourish, transform, and fade, ultimately becoming fragments of both history and memory. One grandma builds on her weightlifting career, while another filmmaker employs experimental techniques to reconstruct family memories. A 1993 soccer match and WhatsApp exchanges serve as platforms for initiating intimate conversations with family. Mass exodus in Russia leaves the rooms of a building abandoned, while the existence of an art piece outside a NYC building is questioned. (EP)
